Christmas is Coming




It's the last challenge of the year at Try it on Tuesday and the them is a nice easy one Christmas is Coming - and as usual it's up top you what you make.

I've opted for a card and used this jolly Santa, stamped onto white card, then masked while I coloured the background with Tumbled Glass DI.  I stamped some second generation snowflakes with Iced Spruce.  The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with clear EP.

The rest of the DT have some great inspiration so please pop over to the main blog where you will also find all the challenge details.

Have a great day.

Iced Spruce works well for the snowflakes, Avril. It's a great card, very traditional and very heartwarming. You just can't beat a Santa at this time of year!
