This week's 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown is a sketch (I find sketches are great when I want to make a card but my mind has gone blank!). This card was made by following the sketch and using oddments of Popcorn the Bear papers.
I layered cream script paper (not a Christmas paper, but the colour co-ordinated with Popcorn) onto silver mirri card. This was then attached to a square card blank. I die-cut circles from scraps of Popcorn paper and also one from blue snowflake paper (all magazine freebies) These were attached to silver scalloped mirri circles. I used Majestic Blue Versafine ink to stamp the sentiment onto the blue snowflake paper - the sentiment is from Hobby Art's 'Christmas Greetings' set. I used a Woodware snowflake punch to cut two snowflakes from the silver mirri card. I assembled the card following the sketch layout. To finish, I used a white Sakura glaze pen to highlight the snowflakes on the sentiment circle.
