Hi everyone, a card today for Dutch Dare where the challenge is to 'put a hole in your card', Secret Crafter with a challenge of 'decoupage', ABC with a challenge of 'snow' and Everbody Art Challenge with a challenge of 'winter/Christmas', lots of lovely challenges to put together!I stamped the gorgeous Elzybells girl with her sledge from the Dinky Christmas set and water coloured with Ranger Distress inks then cut out using the nestabilities label one die, edged and dotted with glamour dust. I stamped the image again, water coloured and cut out the presents and layered with gel glue on the image. To add the hole element of Dutch Dare I die cut a piece of ivory bazzil bling with the labels die one size up from the image size, sponged the edges with black distress ink and layered this on the beige card blank over a piece of snowflake patterned paper, not sure of the brand it was an offcut but might be DCWV Christmas stack. The image is mounted on dimension tape in the centre of the aperture I did a bit of doodling, punched some snowflakes, added gems to their centres and stamped the Woodware sentiment to finish. TFL.
Back soon,
Chris

Hi Chris,
This is gorgeous, I love the wintery feeling it conjurs up and those nestie shapes look fab! I'm also impressed with the Bazzil bling, it looks so effective! I want the other labels set now, ooooh why do these companies keep coming up with such gorgeous stuff!!
Thanks for thinking of me, it's really kind of you.... I'm still not that good but just living with it, what else can you do? Plenty to distract me anyway, if you know what I mean?! xxx
Chris is super stunning! Love how you got a really true water coloured effect with the distress inks. The blues and greens of the watercolored background are simply magnificent!!! I love the sweet image too and I really love the idea of cutting the aperture shape in the centre of the card base and the all the layering!!! I just love everything you have done here!!!!
Hugs, TaraG

Stunning card Chris, love it. Thanks for joining in the ABC challenge.
Hi Chris. I love this card. For a start I adore it when you can meet more than one challenge with a card and here you are the queen of multi-challenge. The colours are so icy and fresh. The nestabilities are just magic. (Hmmm... I'm pretty sure I ordered these and they haven't turned up yet... but who knows... I may have just imagined that. Need to do some investigating methinks!)
Have a great weekend
