I actually did the challenge for Monday two days before it was posted but the card was for the Inspiration challenge. So I thought IÂ’d try something very similar in a holiday card then thought IÂ’d try something I hadnÂ’t seen before and bring one image out of the collage area. I like it and no doubt itÂ’s been done and IÂ’ve just never seen it!
Sponging was done for the brown then stamped with the cross hatch texture image from HA. I used a water brush and pad ink for color on the images. The snowflake charms are attached with Diamond Glaze. I just pulled out every small holiday sentiment I could think of and started stamping the background.
