Happy Monday to all!! A little slow out of the gate this morning, but expected that after being able to sleep at least an hr. and 1/2 to 2 hrs. later everyday since Weds. Anyhow, we have a NEW CHALLENGE this week at THERE'S MAGIC IN THE AIR WITH PAPER CUPCAKES and our challenge this week is SHABBY CHIC OR VINTAGE CHRISTMAS! Thanks to DT Member Sonia for choosing such a fun theme!!
You have until Sunday, Dec. 4 in the evening EST to play along. While you are not required to use an image from PAPER CUPCAKES SHOP, we'd sure LOVE to see one and you will get 2 entries instead of 1 for purposes of our random.org drawing for the winner if you use one:) Nina has added some awesome new images to the shop, so I hope you will go check them out at PAPER CUPCAKES SHOP.
For my card, I chose "Welcome Winter," which is going to be released later this month. I love this image and enjoyed coloring it with my Copics and Fiskars glitter gel pens. I cut it out with Nesties and used Aleen's glitter glaze for the snow on the ground and the trim on the bird's hat. I used papers from Kaisercraft as well as the tag, on which I added an eyelet and sentiment from Unity stamps. Circles are cut with Lifestyle Crafts die and corners done with an EK Success punch. I added bling from Prima as well. I am really happy at the way this turned out - vintage/shabby chic has always been one of the most challenging styles to grasp, but I love a good challenge:)
