Crafty Ann's #80 White Christmas

Another fortnight gone and it's time for a new challenge at  Crafty Ann's and this week the theme is White Christmas - we want to see white on white projects but you may use a coloured image.


Image is a pre-coloured poinsettia which I've printed several times and decoupaged, it is available from Crafty Ann's Digi Shop. The rocker card and layers are all cut using fancy grand nestie dies, the second layer being embossed with a tied together folder. Ribbon and sentiment from my stash. Snowflakes are punch waste. I don't think you can see the white stickles added to the snowflakes. 
I've left the card fairly plain and simple as I wanted it flat for posting.


Do pop over to the challenge blog to see Ann and the teams creations, you won't be disappointed. This is our last challenge of the year but we'll be back on the 4th January next year!

  4. Thanks Carol for taking me up on my suggestion to enter your bee-utiful shaped Poinsettia Christmas card in the MFP SS Choice of 2=3 Themes challenge. The detail in this is pretty. I tried decoupaging 2 mths ago when I decoupaged some papers and an Owl image on a glass bottle.
