This card just drove me mad, I had it planned in my head but somehow it didn't make it to paper the same way. Anyway, I am going to post this and then bury said card in my pile never to be seen again...until christmas when some poor unsuspecting person receives this in the mail.So I decided to follow the sketch over at Sketch Saturday (been procrastinating over this card so long I've probably missed the challenge).
Over at Ladybug Crafts Ink Challenge Blog they want non tradional (not me) or distressed and me and this card were both VERY distressed by the time it was all said and done.
Decided to joing Crimbo Crackers for their first ever challenge where "anything goes" - and it all just about went finishing this off.
So image is my new Sarah Kay Noel Santa coloured with copics, crackled and distressed to within an inch of his life (been wanting him for ages and finally got him), DP is Bo Bunny Father Christmas, sentiment is my other newbie - Wimsy Stamps Mini Postage Stamps - love em love em love em. Pearls are old stash, and blood sweat and tears are all mine lol.
Glad you could join in - its a fab card! I have things that never look as they did in my head!! Thank you for joining in at Crimbo Crackers – hope you can join me again for the next challenge! Crimbo Crackers
ReplyDeleteWas it the card or you that were distressed? I hate it when I can't make a card work but that is how we figure out what does work I guess! Thanks for playing along at LCI!
