Hi everyone, a card today for High Hopes where the challenge is 'buttons and brads', Papertake Weekly with a challenge of 'Snow' and Friday Sketchers which has a great sketch this week by Mumur. The High Hopes 'Reindeer Games' stamp is marker coloured and highlighted for the snow element with white inkessentials pen and glamour dust (it's so lovely and sparkly IRL) and sponged around the edges with Ranger distress ink. The papers are all Basic Grey 'Wassail' which I've cut in line with the sketch and edged with a distressing tool. Added buttons and sparkly snowflake brads from stash to decorate along with the sentiment which is corner punched, edged with distress ink and a distressing tool. TFL.Back soon,
Chris
