My Turn at 52CCT

By
Morning all - it's my turn to host the month's challenges at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and as always we kick off with a sketch - take a look


And here is my card


You will be forgiven for thinking that it is very close to my last card for the 52CCT sketch but I am having an idea (yes I know it's frightening!). I am thinking that I will do all the sketches similar so that come December I will have a nice little pack of similar styled cards to give as a gift or use as a raffle prize. That's the idea anyway!
Washi tape is perfect for this design and so quick too, and I do love the gold sequins that are now in the new Spring/Summer mini. Along with the gold foil card stock they add a lovely touch of glamour to my cards.

Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Hello Lovely, Petite Pairs
Ink: Pear Pizzazz
Card Stock: Naturals White, Very Vanilla, Gold Foil Card, Real Red
Accessories: God Washi Tape, Gold Sequins, Dimensionals

    Great minds think alike re the washi tape Jacqueline! It's just perfect for Christmas projects, and teams so well with the gold sequins too. Love the way you turned the sketch - gives it a very different look. Gill x

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
