Morning and another new month!!!I have three DT posts today and the first one is for the Christmas/Winter challenge at Dragonfly Dreams.
We are sponsored by Papernest Dolls and I was given the image North Pole Mini Santa coloured with promarkers.
CAS you think??? Simple not so much -in fact by the end of making this card the background stencil, was in the bin and was going to be closely followed by the card!!!
I took at least 20 pics to get a decent one then remembered my daylight lamp-which was out of charge -turned to plug it in and stubbed my toe on a chair -after saying oops(or a word to that effect lol) I finally got a half decent pic.Two hours later I walked past the card on the table and thought ooh it doesn't actually look too bad-soooo here it is lol.The sentiment was Penny Black and texture Cosmic Shimmer PVA glue.

Amazing how in the end it looks so good to me! I know all about how CAS is not necessarily simple. There are sometimes details and planning and mishaps that make it take forever. I'm glad you saved it!

ReplyDeleteThe making of this card was indeed eventful, but it really did turn out cute! Love the "fur"
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I have missed so many of your cards. I have been so busy the last few days. This Santa is adorable! I have had problems with my lighting lately. I was trying to photograph my first very long card (can't remember what they are called.) I could not get the lighting right on it for anything. One side was always darker.
ReplyDeleteAwww so sweet, great job with the stamp, thanks for playing our challenge at Krafty Chicks
