Retro Christmas


 

This card was designed for the Aud Sentiments Christmas Sentiment, Christmas 24 Simply Snowflakes, and C.R.E.A.T.E. Christmas Non Traditional Colours Challenges.  I also plan to enter this into the Peace on Earth Christmas Challenge which is a new anything goes Christmas challenge that posts a mood board for inspiration if you choose to use it ,which I did for this card.

 


I started with a 9x12 sheet of bristol paper and sprayed it with Dina Wakely Ocean, Turquiose, and Night acrylic gloss sprays and Tim Holtz Brushed Pewter Distress spray until I liked the look.  Then I cut off a piece for this card and edged it with Majestic Violet Archival ink from Ranger.  I cut the sentiment from silver foil cardstock using the Tim Holtz Retro Merry Christmas die and the snowflakes from white and silver foil cardstocks using dies from Stampin' Up's Snowfall set.  I popped the panel up on a white card base and finished the card of with a purple sparkle.

Thank you for stopping by!  Until next time, Hansi
