Wishing you the Joy of Christmas


This afternoon I have a non traditional Christmas card... well I think these colours and chevrons aren't really Christmasy... I used the negative of a stencil that had been inked with Distress Inks and then spritzed with water.  I decided to just go with this cool sentiment stamped in purple ink and embossed with pearl white EP.  To finish I layered the panel on metallic purple card onto a cream card and added a few pearls.  I am playing along with Christmas Card Throwdown - Non-Traditional Christmas and Watercooler Wednesday WWC180 - Marsha's "All About Holidays" challenge.  Thanks for visiting and enjoy your weekend

  2. What a great zig-zag background you've stencilled for this unique Christmas card, Robyn! I love those soft colours. They're perfect for your purple heat-embossed sentiment. Great design. Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
