Papertrey Ink Bells and Boughs Christmas Card




Hello everyone and welcome to another challenge over at ABC Christmas Challenges.
 

We had some fabulous entries last month and if you would like to see if you are a winner of one of the fabulous prizes from Lynda, head over to blog and scroll down.


This time our themes are 

J for Jingle
and
K for Kids


Our host this time is the wonderful Dorte and she has a lovely prize for the winner.

I went with J for jingle and came up with this card



I used the Papertrey Ink Bells and Boughs stamp and die set, and a leaf die from My Favorite Things. I coloured the bells using Copic markers to give the bells a dimensional feel and then shaped them to add to this effect. I filled each bell with silicone gel so it would set and keep the bells in shape through the post.


The sentiment is from Paper Smooches and I stacked it a couple of times. To finish off, I framed the card with a scalloped frame from a My Favorite Things set.

I do hope you will join in with us this time, and head over to the blog to see some great inspiration from my talented teammates.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs
