December Creative Crew 2023 Christmas with a different color

Happy Holidays all. This month our hostess is the creative Darlene. She decided to challenge us with a kit for a Christmas card using non-traditional colors. The kit included 2 cut and folded base cards that coordinated with the DSP she sent called Ink Drops by Craft Consortium. The images are All Together Holiday by Taylored Expressions. Gems are from Paper Studio along with flowers sequins and ribbon.

When making this card I first chose the DSP I liked and then matched it to the card base. I then cut out the die I chose to use from part of the other card base as well as a mounting piece for the dsp, I colored the little Christmas pieces with colored pencils and added a little sparkle in little places on the pieces. I used the little gems to accent the die and added the little ornaments, To finish off the front I stamped a sentiment from my stash and mounted it on the left over paper I had from mounting the other pieces. On the inside I did the same this with the sentiment and added a few little ornaments on the base to finish off the card. Here is my card both front and inside:

Thanks for stopping by. Please stop and check out the blogs/SCS gallery and see the other creations. I am certain you will not be disappointed.

Until next time,

Hugs,

I am a wife a mom of two adult girls and a grandma to 3 wonderful girls and 2 fun active boys. They are the lights of my life, I am also a papercrafter. I love making cards and trying out new ideas and techniques. I dabble in other crafts as well. I crochet blankets, hats and dresses as well as other items to donate to the premie project and try my hand at anything that looks fun. Not necessarily successfully but I do try. Needless to say I am busy. I work full time, spend time with the family and craft when I can. Life is good and God has blessed me. For that I am truly thankful.
