Winter Cheer . . .

Hello dear friends!

I'm in need of JUST A FEW MORE holiday cards

so while watching the British Holiday Backoff

on Netflix, I created this fun card.  

Hope you like it!

I recently purchased this die set from the Dies R Us Store

and it is a Memory Box die called 'Country Church Frame'

Memory Box has sever other frame dies such as this one

so be sure to check out what's available.  I actually

ordered a few others that I will hopefully have time to play

with and share with you in the near future.

After die cutting the entire die from white card stock, I colored

the church and added holiday Stickles to the trees.

While those were drying, I created my background using a panel

of white watercolor paper and a few Tim Holtz Oxide Distress Inks.

Of course, the spritz of water quickly picked up with a paper towel

created a lovely snowy appearance.

Other dies I have used are:

Penny Black (Set of 3)

'Winter Cheer'

Sue Wilson (Festive Collection)

'Snowflake Background'

#CED3018

I decided to leave the one die cut circle off my design

so the background would show through a little more.  

My sentiment die is an 'all in one die' but I decided

to do a bit of fussy cutting and make it two parts.

Challenges to share in:

Dream Valley Challenges - Christmas

Take a Word Challenge - Blue & White

Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Anything Goes Winter or Christmas

Dare 2BArtzy December Challenge - Winter

Well that's it for me today!

Busy week ahead and big neighborhood party on Sunday!

Take care, stay safe and enjoy each day!

As always . . .
