Guesting for the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge Blog…

Hi cardmakers and friends! I’m so honored to be the guest card designer at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge blog today! I love making cards this time of year and I love receiving them too!  I went with a clean and simple take to the challenge sketch!  So fun!

I was so tickled to find this die in my stash that so resembled all the circles!  So I die cut it 3 times, glued them together so it’d have a frosty, dimensional feel.  Cuz brrrrr  it’s gonna be cold outside! haha  It’s every other day in Iowa…in fact we can have all four seasons in one day!  haha  No snow yet though!

Shoot me now cuz, grrr, this poppystamps Scribble Snowflake Circle die is a discontinued one.  I will link up some other dies below that I think would work nicely for this type of card too!  I just kept finding more while looking HERE!  More ideas than I can handle! lol

 

I love the punch of the Robin’s Egg and Candy Necklace Bazzill colors with this NEW Celebrate Jotted Script die from Memory Box.  Links below.  The pattern paper is a woodgrain that’s available too! yay!

I hope you’ll click over to the challenge blog, make a Christmas card and link it up for this challenge!  It’s so fun to look through the stash to see what you can come up with for the sketch!  I want to see what you make!

Linking my card to some other challenges too…

  1. i love this card, pam! the brown and turquoise colors are always a hit with me!
    i was wondering if this woodgrain paper is flat like a photo or is it textured as it appears to be?
    tfs, sandyh

  2. I have this snowflake die and don’t mind one bit that it’s retired. They come and go so quickly. Love it with the very dimensional sentiment and the wood grain behind. Cute sketch!

  3. How lucky to find that die, it’s perfect! So pretty and that greeny blue is one of my favourite colours. Thanks for being our guest designer, we got there! x

  4. Lol…don’t you just love it when you’re totally done with something, and realize it’s retired? That’s why I stopped with publications. This is simply perfect! Such a simple design that packs so much wow! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂

I love hearing from you! Thank YOU!
