Sorry for the long hiatus. I have been really busy. I just couldn’t find the time to blog. I still try to make cards whenever I can but blogging been taking a back seat as I wanted to let my physical self rest whenever I have free time and not burnt out. I generally craft & get the blog write- up done during my off days from work. But with short staffing at work, I couldn’t take time off. It does take a bit of time and effort to blog. Anyway, I made a bunch of Christmas cards this year with the little challenge I set myself and would like to share with you here. Hope you enjoy this very late post. I am really sorry for the bad photo quality here as it was really gloomy in November and December 2019 and I couldn't get any decent pictures.
I have this pad of beautiful Christmas theme pattern paper that I have for a while and been wanting to use them but years past and I have yet figured out how I wanted to use them. So I set myself a challenge to use them for this year Christmas card. Somehow, I ended using all the pattern papers as background.
For some of the cards, I added word dies and top up with lots of shine & gloss using Wink of Stella & Glossy Accents.
The following cards had various sentiment strips.
Shaped element were added to the remaining cards which I stamped with sentiment.
I hope you will find this post give you the courage and incentive to play with those pretty pattern papers instead of saving them for the perfect moments (which may never come) or for fear of messing them up. I took the plunge and am happy with what was created.
