Hello everyone!

I’m honoured to be the Guest Designer for the current colour challenge over at the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown!

I started with a piece of lilac cardstock and blended Villainous Potion distress ink around the edges and in towards the centre. I then embossed it using Penny Black’s Blizzard embossing folder.

I cut gold glitter and pearlescent card with the fabulous Pointed Evergreens die by Simon Says Stamp and layered the glitter trees on top of the pearlescent image, slightly offsetting the image. I adhered the trees to my card base and then added a small purple panel that I’d covered with rainbow embossing powder as I didn’t have the right shade of purple glitter card. I had wanted to use Distress Sparkle Texture Paste which I really like but it took a LONG time to dry completely and so I had to find an alternative.

The sentiment is from a My Favourite Stamps set.

The Design Team have some amazing inspiration over on the challenge blog – you must check it out! Hope you can play along with the challenge!

Thanks for stopping by!
