Hello and welcome
Today I’m back with a new challenge over at Watercooler Wednesday. Marsha is host for this special 3 week challenge – Watercooler Wednesday Challenge: All About Occasions.
I had lots of fun making this Christmas card. I love interactive cards and living here is Australia where it’s hot and sunny for Christmas, I couldn’t resist a summery Christmas theme.
I started by cutting SSS – Perforated Flaps middle die twice on the ccard front.
Then AI – Tropical Christmas images were stamped on the front and watercolured with Distress inks.
2 more dies were cut and stamped with more images from the set for the back of the flaps. The presents were from AI – Meerkat Stamp Set.
The card front then had more images added in the frame spaces . All Distress ink watercoloured.
The panels were added to the flaps and then added to the card front.
I’m sure it will bring a smile.
Don’t forget to head over to our blog to check out the wonderful inspiration from the rest of our Design Team.
I look forward to seeing what you create this week!
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit. I love to read your comments.
Stay safe in these difficult times and have a good day
Cheers
Helen
