Case Me A Christmas Card 2022

I'm excited to be invited again by Michelle Lupton to join along with her Case me a Christmas Card series. It's always fun to pick one of Michelle's cards to case. I picked this card that she blogged in August this year - I love the simplicity of this card and adapted it for Christmas. I'd actually made 6 versions of this card in the one session! The stampset is a recent purchase from Simon Says Stamp and the blocking was done with sticky note strips. Here is Michelle's Case for one of my cards! Thanks for stopping by!

Materials used:

Stamp - Simon Says Stamp Season of Joy
Inks - Tim Holtz Distress Ink

Altenew March Inspiration Challenge

It's been a while since my last post! Work has been crazy and other activities post COVID lockdown takes up most of our spare time, so no time for making cards! I was inspired by Jennifer McGuire's new video to make this card. A bit of distress ink blending and Copic marker colouring for the background using colours from the Altenew March Inspiration (made it on the last day). Thanks for dropping by!
