I discovered a challenge blog called CASE-ing Christmas
and thought I would give it a try. Here is the provided picture of an inspiration card designed by Steph...
And here is the card I was inspired to make...
I hate to admit this, but that isn't my best work. I didn't have a lot to work with because most of my Christmas supplies are still packed away. I guess it's time I get my Christmas stuff unpacked...lol But the look I was going for was old-fashioned.
Be sure to check out CASE-ing Christmas and all the beautiful creations the design team made.
Thanks for stopping by and....
HAPPY CRAFTING!!!
Janie, this is FABULOUS! I LOVE the great texture--and that candy cane was a perfect choice for an accent! Thank you for joining us at CASE-ing Christmas! HUGS! :) Mynn xx
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Mynn....but to be honest I'm not really pleased with it....I really need to get my Christmas supplies out before I try making anymore Christmas cards....lol.... :) Hugs...Janie
