Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday! Welcome to Week 2 – our Christmas theme challenge, or any holiday/winter card. You are free to use any products, techniques and style you want, you can even make any kind of paper crafting project, it doesn’t have to be a card!
I like to make cards from different backgrounds I keep in my “bits and pieces” basket, which is where this one came from. This was made with alcohol inks, which I don’t get out very often, but when I do I like to make a lot with them! Some I never end up using, but a lot of times they come in handy.
The mittens are from a die cut set, not sure of who made them. The tops were embossed with an embossing folder, and the sparkly design was made with a stencil and some glitter paste.
This month we are happy to have Jackie from Get the JC Look as our guest chick, so be sure to stop by her blog, and the other chicks blogs, to get some more ideas and inspiration for this week’s challenge!
