It’s been so long since I participated in the MojoMonday sketch, but after seeing Donna’s incredible take on the sketch, I was inspired!
I had a completely different vision for this card, a different main image in fact. But it wasn’t working with the distressed look of the card. So I switched it up at the last second.
I apologize for the dark pictures…I’m still awaiting my delivery of Photoshop and I’m counting the days!
The DP is Cosmo Cricket, and I’m totally in love with it!
I distressed the edges with TH Frayed Burlap ink; the image panel is SU Very Vanilla with some Frayed Burlap rubbed on to match the distressing on the DP. I think I’m thrown off by the Taken with Teal I used to mat the DP, but it’s the perfect match and I needed another layer…be honest- what do you think?
I love! this wide SU Old Olive ribbon, but have been limited so far in using it. I think it works pretty good as the second panel in the sketch…although to mail this card, I think you’d need extra postage because of the thickness. Maybe in the spirit of Christmas the post man would let it slide ;)
I haven’t chosen a sentiment for this card yet, although I’m thinking “Season’s Greetings” over “Merry Christmas”.
The snowflakes are punched from THE most gorgeous sparkly paper I found at Scrapping Great Deals on the weekend. You will be seeing lots of sparkly snowflakes!!
Main image is from SU- Season of Joy- which is quickly becoming my favourite Christmas stamp set.
Happy Thursday!
Ciao for now,
