Krafty Chicks Challenge #772: CHRISTMAS

 Happy Krafty Chicks Thursday to you!

Time for another great challenge from the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog. Welcome to week 2 of our challenges and that's to use a CHRISTMAS or any holiday/winter theme on your project. I chose to put the spotlight on Christmas this week!

 #772 CHRISTMAS

I haven't inked up this little Christmas chickadee in a long while. It was once well loved and the stamp has the ink stains to prove it. I used my watercolour pencils to add colour to the image and a window sheet to add the water splatter in the background.  

Products used:

• Stamp Set: Beautiful Season (retired)
• Card Stock: Thick Basic White (159229), Basic Black (121045) 
• Ink Pads: Memento (132108), Gray Granite (147118)
• Accessories: Stitched Rectangle Dies (retired), Water colour pencil (161700), Window Sheet (142314), Sparkle Gems (161288)
   

I didn't stamp the inside of the card yet as I am already late posting. But I will stamp a little part of the holly branch and give it a quick colour. As for the envelope, I just reused an envelope that I received from a friend and added the gold lined label to cover my name. Why recycle when you can reuse!

 

Head on over to the Krafty Chicks Challenge Blog for more details about the challenge and for more inspiration for CHRISTMAS week from the Design Team. There's even a place to upload your project at the end. I hope you play along with us and show us what's happening in your craft space.
