Hello everyone and welcome to another challenge at ABC Christmas Challenges.
This time our themes are
N for New
and
O for Old
Lynda is our lovely host this time and she has these great prizes for the lucky winner.
I came up with this card that uses both old (Taylored Expression stamp) and new (sentiment stamp and die from The Greetery)
I inked up some white card with Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress Oxide inks before stamping the image from Taylored Expression Seasonal Sprig. I coloured using the accompanying stencils and then cut out the center of the image with a Penny Black die, and raised it up on the background to give a kind of loose spotlight look. The sentiment from The Greetery was stamped and die cut to finish the card off.
You'll find lots of inspiration over on the ABC Christmas Blog and I hope you will join in with us this time.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hugs
