Hello!
I carved out a little bit of crafty time tonight to make this card for several challenges. Β I started with MFT’s weekly sketch and incorporated several elements to meet other challenges (listed below).
I enjoyed building this card layer by layer using Echo Park’s Season’s Greetings paper and inked most of the layers with Chestnut Roan ink. I’m glad I decided to cut the ornament out of gold cardstock, it adds a touch of elegance. One more card made…I’m not sure how many to go LOL!
Challenges I am entering:
Christmas Card Challenges #51 – Sparkle and Bling
4 Crafty Chicks #168 – Snowflakes
Penny’s Paper Crafty Challenge #153 – Add a Sentiment
Crafty Creations #248 – Dies/Punches
Thanks for looking!

Very pretty card. I like the papers you used.
I don’t do much layering with patterned paper, but I’m working on it and ilayering sure makes for beautiful cards.
