Merry Christmas!! LOL It's so hard to imagine that Christmas is just a few short months away. AAAACCCKKKK!! But, alas, it's true. So, thankfully the Ways to Use It Challenge is to create a Christmas Card in July. Well, I just happened to create a sample for the Shirley's 2 Girls Twisted Thursday Challenge, too, so killed two birds with one stone. Woohoo!!
The Twisted Thursday challenge is a sketch challenge, and the "twist" was to add something clear. I created a snowflake using my Spellbinders Snowflakes and clear card stock, painted it with Diamond Glaze and then sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds to make it blingy. The long panel on the left is also a bookmark, held on to the card with Basic Grey self-adhesive magnets. I cut a slit near the top that the bookmark slides into. Clever, huh?
For more fun chit-chat, please visit my blog, Paper Therapy. Thanks for looking!
