FTTC89 – Focus On The Sentiment

 

SONY DSC

Hello everyone~

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC89)! It’s my turn to be a challenge host this week. Yay!!  I am challenging you to focus on the sentiment. Create a card or project with the sentiment as the main focus. Easy enough? We would love to see what you create.

 

I decided to keep my Charismas Spirit since the last week’s challenge :):) I used two wonderful Holiday sets, Santa, I Believe and Sweet of the Season. The design of both sets are absolutely gorgeous! I really enjoy making this card :)

For the background, I stamped the three different images on the white cardstock and colored with Copic markersE31, 33, 35, and 37 are just perfect for the gingerbread cookies!! The focal piece was sponged with Memento Rhubarb Stalk and the greeting was stamped with Brilliance Pearlescent Chocolate. To finish off the card, I tied the gingham ribbon and attached the gingerbread cookie cutter charm (found it at a major craft store).
