Our challenge on the Polkadoodles challenge blog this week is Ribbons and Bows. I think this extra wide ribbon will fit the bill. This is a BIG card - 8" x 8". I made it as a sample for Nikky to show on Create and Craft TV in the UK, but forgot to put it in the parcel with the other cards, so here it is. Big cards work best for TV samples - you make a regular sized card, the presenter whips through them at 100 cards a minute, blink and you've missed it.
I used the sweet carol singers from Magical Winter and added some letter stickers to their hymn sheets. They all have a pompom on their hats. The inking was done with dark green chalk ink - hasn't photographed well, it looks dirty brown on this photo
Talking of singers, look what was clustered outside the door of the room where I craft every Thursday with a group of friends - a regular frogs chorus. Aren't they cute? Each one was only around 1/2" long or less. I almost adopted the big guy........
What an adorable card. Love the little singers on the card... I would pass on the others! teehee
ReplyDeleteAll these wonderful Christmas cards - I love your happy singers. I am still ploughing through the birthday and anniversary cards I still need for the next two months.
ReplyDeleteThis is just fab Enfys! Love the way you've put the wording on the hymn sheets. I saw Nikky on C&C earlier today with some fab CDs and DT cards. xx
ReplyDeleteHI Enfys, love this Christmas card, and how cute is that, having all these frogs outside? Have a great weekend, hugs Frea

ReplyDeleteThose froggies are very, very cute! As is you card!! Are you still in Florida? When I was there with my daughter, son-in-law and grandkids, the salamanders were the stars!! Every time you walked around the corner of the condo we were renting, the would hop away at an amazing rate of speed..all of them teeny weeny little things..it was crazy!! There had to be a nest nearby!!
