Today it's Sunday and time for this week's new challenge over at The Paper Players! It's the turn of the fabulous Christy to host this week and she has my favourite, a sketch challenge for us to work with:
I decided to get out my Creative Celebrations paper and co-ordinating mix & match ephemera packs for today's card as they contain lots of options for that focal point - take a look at which one I chose:
Here's the low-down on today's card:
I used a Hydrangea Hue card base and a co-ordinating DSP that reminds me of a snowy sky, and embossed the edge of the white mat layer with the (retired) Snowflake Sky so that it was visible against the torn edge. I chose a diecut piece of a car stacked with gifts as my focal point. The strip of presents is also from the Creative Celebrations paper pack and was left over from a previous project and was perfect for the horizontal element:
A trio of of sparkly snowflakes and a silver opal foiled sentiment complete my card.
Here is the visual summary of the key products used on today's project for you to pin for easy reference:
