Good morning folks, its time for a new challenge over at We Love 2 Create and we're keeping it nice and easy for you with a theme of 'Anything Creative/Mixed Media Goes' again! You don't have to use our products to enter and you've got two whole weeks to enter so I hope you're going to join in the fun. Our lucky winner will receive some gorgeous crafty stash from those lovely folks at Premium Craft Brands
I've made a quick Christmas card for my DT project this week, we're well into October already so it won't be long before Christmas is upon us! I've used a kit that I bought ages ago from Which Craft, I've used my PanPastels to distress all the papers. Its really easy to do and loads quicker than inking. The Robin stamp is from Woodware and came with the kit, he's soooooo cute lol. He's stamped on kraft card with Memento Rich cocoa ink and I've paper pieced his wing and breast and added some colour with PanPastels (links to the colours i've used can be found at the end of this post). I've also given the Robin a googly eye lol and stamped the sentiments with Memento Rich Cocoa.
To finish off I've added a bow, a rusty bell and a button topped with a twine bow.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
