Happy Tuesday everyone!
It's time for a new Timeless Tuesday Challenge at Flourishes! This week's challenge FTTC238 is:
"Let It Shine" - Incorporate a light source in your card: a candle, lamp, lighthouse, the sun, or even a shiny element.---anything, as long as you "Let It Shine!".
For my card, I used the Christmas Candles Set!
I love this beautiful Christmas set! The image and sentiment were stamped on Solar White Cardstock and colored with pencils and mineral spirits. I also stamped, colored, and fussy cut an extra little piece of berries and holly to put next to the sentiment. Here's a little close up of the image:
This was then die cut with Decorative Labels 8 and sponged with Wheat Chalk Ink while still in the die. I popped this on a double mat of burgundy and green cardstock with Moss Twill wraped around it. This was then popped on a white cardbased made the Labels 23 Grand Dies. I finished this off with some pearls, bow made with Moss Micro Gingham Ribbon and a button with floss threaded in it.
Be sure to visit the Flourishes' Designers to see their gorgeous creations for the challenge this week!

The second I'm finished with my comment here, I'm pinning this card! OMGoodness! It is glorious! The layout, beautiful die cut, and of course, your amazing coloring are breathtaking! And the extra little berries and holly you added finished it off perfectly!

Kathy,
ReplyDeleteThis looks so real I can almost smell wax, cinnamon and cloves. The shadow on the holly you fussy cut really makes it more real.
We love to see your artwork; thank you for posting with us at Word Art Wednesday. Remember you can post up to FIVE projects this week ( even tho’ it’s nearly over).
Blessings,
