Hello all, and welcome to my blog today! I hope you are all doing well, and making the most out of life! I am stopping by today to share my latest card for the Christmas With The Cuties challenge, where we want to see WHITE ON WHITE on your Christmas cards. Here is mine:
Our sponsor for this month is
This digi image is called Welcome Christmas, and he is my favorite Crafty Sentiments Designs image in my collection. He is so easy to color, and goes with everything! So, for our WOW challenge, I thought that light blues would be appropriate to color this guy, and I used Star Dust Stickles to give him some sparkle. I also used my white gel pen to add texture to the blue parts of his winter gear, and some Tulip puffy paint on the cuffs of his mittens. White on white (or any tone on tone) cards need to be all about texture, so I used a Recollections printable glitter paper on top of the card base. Then I embossed a small scrap of white paper with a small snowflake embossing folder. The circle die cut image was mounted onto a Spellbinders Petite scalloped circle and popped up on foam squares. The Tim Holtz Christmas Phrases #1 sentiment was cut from 5 pieces of Recollections 110# card stock, and then a top layer of the same glitter paper used on the base. I wanted to make sure it stood out from the base really well!
