The weeks are going by so fast, aren't they? I swear, this year is going to be gone before we know it (and thank goodness for that!!!)
I am still making Christmas Cards - first year EVER I won't have the November panic.... but you don't need to make it a Christmas theme - just disregard the Christmas references and make whatever card you like. Remember, this is fun!
I have also found this challenge really helpful in making me concentrate on using up my stash - all those kits I bought and stroked and put away are now coming into their own! Because I am just doing Christmas, I have basically just put the kits I want to use in a bag and each week I rummage through that to find something to make. It is all getting mixed up, but most importantly, it is getting used. I can honestly say I haven't bought anything to make my cards over these 21 weeks - it is all stuff I already had.
Anyway, on with the challenge for this week. Here is the sketch and tic tac toe for week 21.
This card was made using some of a Snowman kit I have had for years. I used some of it last year, but it was huge, so there was loads left.
I used a scalloped edge 6 x 6 card as my base, I layered a square of dark blue snow paper onto some teal (?) backing paper then wrapped some ribbon across the bottom almost half way up. I stuck the bow in the same ribbon onto the right hand side, and attached a diecut topper to the left hand side using foam pads. Finally, I stuck a die cut sentiment in the top right hand corner using foam pads.
This was a super quick and easy card to make - but I really like it.
I hope those of you still joining in are having fun - and those of you who aren't are enjoying looking at the makes! Stay safe everyone...
