MIM #193 + CTS103 + Curtain Call Candy Cane & MM139 + Card Concept #25

I couldn't resist making time to play with Laura Bassen's Make It Monday#193: Camouflaging Die Cuts. You can check out the video tutorial here.

I also took inspiration from CAS(E) this Sketch #103 for the design and the Curtain Call December 15 - Candy Cane challenge for the color palette.


  






It is very hard to see in the full card photo, but score lines add a bit of dimension and echo the stripes of the candy canes.










I used my pearl Modeling Cream and Memory Box stencil to add snowflakes to the panel first and then layered on the inked reindeer die cut and Sizzix die cut sentiment. I think ths card belongs in the Clean & Layering category.




The kids are finishing up final projects before their winter break and I am on call to advise my son on a little painting, die cutting and hot gluing tonight. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

  5. What wonderful cards, Jacquie. Combining challenges can be - well, challenging - and you managed to do three with your Joy card. I love the shine that pearl paste gives your snowflakes.
