Christmas Stampin' All Year Long Challenge #48

This week over at the Christmas Stampin' All Year Long Challenge blog, we were challenged to create a card using a specific sketch. Here is a picture of the sketch. I have a stack of Christmas paper that I have not used very much, so I thought I would break it out for this challenge. The base of the card is Chocolate Chip card stock from Stampin' Up! The next layer is Very Vanilla card stock from Stampin' Up! I ran it through the Big Shot with the Snowflake Cuttlebug embossing folder. The next layer is a piece of the designer paper from the stack I have. I used tiny pieces of paper to thread through the holes in the buttons (so the buttons weren't naked!!) The next layer is Creamy Caramel card stock from Stampin' Up! I stamped the Christmas flowers using black Memento ink and then coloured the image using the Copics. Some stickles were applied to the center of the flowers to add some glitter! The edges were "antiqued" using Creamy Caramel ink. I cut the oval out using my Coluzzle. If you haven't had a chance to do some of the challenges from this blog, you really should give it a shot. It's lots of fun! Chow for now, Jacqui
