I decided to go for a Xmas card this week. Sitting on my craft table I had some emerald coloured material that I found in my stash. It has been there for over a week as I knew I wanted to use it for Jackie's Pantone Colour Challenge but just hadn't decided what to do with it. When I saw this sketch I suddenly knew I would die cut some baubles out of this material. If you look closely you will see it is a really thin mesh material that has gold threading through it-perfect for Xmas!
I have popped the middle bauble up on a foam pad to give dimension and used the 'oh gosh by golly, it's time for mistletoe and holly' sentiment stamp from CAS-ual Friday stamps to represent the thread to hang the baubles.
This month eclectic anthology are our sponsors and before you go don't forget to take a peek here at the fabulous projects the rest of our DT made earlier this week to inspire you.
Oh wow, I love that material Sandie! The words as string is very clever too.
I am in LOVE with the way you interpreted this sketch. The baubles are amazing.
Clever, clever girl! A fabulous, unique take on the challenge!
I love your ability to give your own personal twist to sketches - very inspirational!
Wow, way to use the thin mesh, Sandie! I love your composition and use of sketch! I also like how you used the sentiment :) So clever!
Sandie your take on the sketch is gorgeous! Very creative use of text!
That material is gorgeous and so perfect for Christmas ornaments! Love it!
Hi Sandie, I saw your card at Inkspirational and thought I leave you some love as you suggested.... I am glad I did - lovely cards. Great idea to hand to ornament onto the sentiment!
