Good morning to you all in the land of blog
I have had such a productive week off work, not in the crafting type like I normally would, but in the catch up on what I have not done for so long. I still have some ironing to do but in the main things in the home seem to be back on track. So it is time for the next challenge at
and the very talented Denise from Team Marianne has chosen the fabulous theme of
For the Men In Our Lives
Now I know I am not on Team Marianne, but if you know me well, you know I just have to make a Christmas card each week although for a little while this may have to go on hold, but I have made several extras through the other challenges, so this seemed the perfect opportunity to make the dearest hubby Matt his Christmas Card, so what could I create for him this year.
I made this Saucy little Minx
It is another Grand card 8 x 8 inch, using the largest grand circle nestie and decorated inside and out.
The base layer and contrast here is some more of that lovely gold mirror card, the papers are the A4 Papermania Silent Night, totally gorgeous stack, you just have to try them. The image of course is a Saucy Kenny K the sentiments are a mixture of "Oh La La" Kanban and "All I want for Christmas is You" Whiff of Joy, " Merry Christmas" My Sentiments Exactly. Under the large nestie circle are lots of little white feathers just peeking out.
The image coloured in copics with liquid appliqué for the fluffy bits. The image plate has been distressed with Tim Holtz "Old Paper" and over stamped with a Prima clear polymer swirl.
A simple to put together card with a little WOW factor with those fluffy feathers.
Please do pop over to the challenge site and see what Team Marianne have dished up for your tastebuds.
