I took a few minutes to play today, getting out some SU stamps and dies I bought before Christmas and never got round to using, decided to play in a few challenges.
I used my favourite linen texture card and diecut the SU sleigh from an offcut, as well as a stitched frame with Simon Says dies. The background was smooshed with Blueprint and Broken China Distress Ink and the sentiment stamped in Versafine Majestic Blue. I raised the frame slightly with sticky dots.
My card is for the following challenges:
Happy Little Stampers CAS - smooshing
Happy Little Stampers Christmas - jingle
CAS-ology - simple - restricted colour palette, lots of white space, not too many layers - hope this works?
Simon Says - something new
