And, it's Friday again! Time for the new Festive Friday challenge. Here's the inspiration photo:
For this one, I kind of blurred my eyes to see what I could see and I ended up with a colour-block made up of the green trees (I used Stampin' Up's new Mossy Meadow), the red presents (Poppy Parade) and the snow on the ground. I embossed the snow with a Cuttlebug folder and cut the sentiment with an MFT die.
This challenge runs until midnight on Wednesday, August 13; I hope you'll get a chance to play along!
Love how you've reduced the image to basic colour blocks to create your card.
ReplyDeleteThis so makes me happy Ardyth.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking I "need" more Christmas word dies. Love the touch of embossing on this too Ardyth.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful CAS design for the inspiration Ardyth! What a great Christmas Card! and thank you for asking me to join you ladies this week as Guest DT!
ReplyDeleteGreat texture - love the embossing combined with the blocks of color.
ReplyDeletewow !! Love this clean look !
ReplyDeleteI really like this card. At first I wasn't sure about the darker green but it really works- has a retro feel which matches the image perfectly. :) I love your festive Friday posts- keep 'em comin'!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great take on the inspiration photo Ardyth! I love the color blocking. Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteFor once I see what you saw. Now I have to come up with a different idea if I'm going to enter this challenge. ;)
