I made this card for this week's Stamp TV sketch by Vicki: http://stamptv.ning.com/ . For some reason when I looked at it, I instantly envisioned an ornament and two presents, so I went with that. I used Gina K. Design's Vintage Backgrounds set to stamp the patterns onto the presents and ornament (can you tell I was trying to make the flat package look like it was newspaper? Did you get presents wrapped in newspaper as a child?). I cut the ornament top from a scrap of Brushed Silver paper and curved a wire for the ornament hanger and 'tied' my presents up with twine and ribbon.
In addition to the sketch challenge this card fulfilled the requirements of the following challenges as well:
CCC10 on SCS - since it is a holiday card
Little Red Wagon 53 - to use red in a card: http://lilredwagon.blogspot.com , and
Meljen's Design Challenge 32 - to use three kinds of shapes - I have a circle, a square and a rectangle - http://meljensdesignsdt.blogspot.com .
Thank you for the fun challenges and thank you to everyone who takes the time to look at my card.
