This week's challenge is for Marlene, Gabby's mum, who has faced many health issues and is finding it difficult to get into the Christmas spirit - we were to bring silver ornaments or sparkly snowflakes and, for extra cookies, add pink. Well, I didn't look at this part before I made my card, did I!
I don't have any ornament stamps or dies but remembered I had this beautiful dp which I had bought last Christmas. I very simply cut out 4 squares of the dp and backed onto white cardstock and then onto the silver glitter card. Added the white ribbon down the centre and placed my "ornament" - the stars. These are gold stickers I have in my stash which I stuck onto the silver card and cut out and placed them in the centre of the card, using dimensionals.
I am hoping this will get to Illinois before Christmas for Marlene.
Thank you so much for taking a look!!
