Snowflakes and Scraps
I've finally finished hopping my way round the mega Moxie Fab flash mob blog hop for Cath, which started ten days ago - but there were 285 stops along the way. And I've nearly finished making an advent village, which has taken a few weeks but I've really enjoyed doing it. I got the idea from this month's edition of Craft Stamper, so if you're a Craft Stamper reader, you'll get an idea of what I've been up to, but I've added a bit of a twist. I'll post some pics in December.
In the meantime, I've made this card for several challenges:
The colour scheme comes from Dynamic Duos, and I couldn't turn down the dessert option!
The challenge at Less is More is to use designer paper in a CAS way.
I've used the sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch:
And Nonni from Korttikarkuri is having a couple of Christmas challenges (with prizes). This challenge is to use scraps or old stash on your Christmas cards. Both challenges are open until Christmas Eve. Pop over and take a look - better still, join in!
When I was photographing the card, the sunlight was catching the Stickles on the snowflakes beautifully, but unfortunately the camera doesn't capture it. Just use your imagination.
