TWO CHALLENGES

Just have a quick post today with cards for two challenges - Christmas Kickstart (tag) and The Flower Challenge (navy+another color).



I smooshed watercolored a piece of bristol cardstock and then die cut the various parts of my layered flower.  The leaves and the sentiment strip are vellum.  Also dry embossed the circles behind the flower.


The tag is a revision of one I made ages ago - have kept the original because I liked it so much I didn't want to give it away - I have favorite cards like that too that I want to keep.  Anyway, die cut the base of the "sled" with a tag die from some wood grain paper on which I added a lot of distress ink.  Rest is pretty evident on how it was made.  Wonder if I'll be able to part with this one????


All for now - have a great day and thanks for stopping by.
