SO happy you stopped by!
Here's a fun inspiration board we've created to help get you started ...
Today, my eye was drawn to the Ice Skate image in the lower right corner of our mood board. I knew I had an older die from Marianne Designs (LR0247) Ice Skates that would work perfectly.
My background plaid paper is from the Paper Studio 'Four Seasons 3' paper pack and the Tutti die cut panel was cut from a 6x6 panel of the Mintay 'Berrylicious' paper pack.
For my greenery I used the Sue Wilson 'Woodland Collection - Pine Cones & Greenery' die set #CED3103 ... using the largest greenery die. I've added 'berries' by using 'Rudolph Red' Pops of Color from Scrapbook.com.
PLEASE be sure to pop over to THE BLOG and check out the amazing designs our design team has created for your inspiration. What a group of talented ladies!! Then come join in the fun!!

ReplyDeleteSuch a fabulous card _ I have never tried ice skating and if I were younger without all the aches and pains your card would have spurred me on to try love it xx
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful, Darlene! Loving the sketch and fabulous dies! I picked up a couple packs of new Christmas designer papers at Hobby Lobby yesterday after many years of not buying any new papers. Maybe it'll inspire me to make some Christmas cards and join in this challenge this month :)
