Here we are in the month of November already! Don't blink- it will be Thanksgiving before you know it! At Add a Little Dazzle, we are gearing up for Christmas and have a gorgeous photo today. The challenge is actually a color challenge, but I took inspiration from the photo as well.
And here is your color/inspiration photo~
I am not sure if this qualifies for a single layer card; if not it is pretty darn close. Single layers are tough for me so I am tickled that I did this one. The sketch from Happy Little Stampers was perfect for this image and for a single layer card~
The image is stamped on a piece of Curious Metallic White cs from CutCardStock; it has a gorgeous shimmer that I could not get to show up in this photo. The image is colored with Copics. I stamped the bow portion of the image a second time, colored it and then fussy cut it out. A bit tedious but, I do love my fussy cutting!
I die cut 3 pine boughs from Garland Green Craft Metal using a Die-Namites Die, Winter Branch. I adhered the branches over the bow, using Crystal Effects. Once dry, I adhered my fussy cut bow directly over the postion of the bow on the main image.
The sentiment is from Verve.
I am entering this in Virginia's View Challenge this month, which is METAL, as well as My Craft Spot: Challenge Metal.
I hope you can join us in our challenge this week! You do not have
to use craft metal, but if you have it we would love to see it!
