Merry Monday #203


Hi everyone!
Time for another Merry Monday Challenge.
This week I am your challenge hostess and I challenge you to use ombre colors and glitter on your Christmas cards.


I stamped the "merry" using ink pads by Altenew.  Can you see the embossed snowflake? This close-up shows it a bit better. 


I stamped and embossed the sentiment onto a black cardstock banner.  Added some glitter to the sides of the card and mounted it onto my black card base. 

 Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over at the Merry Monday challenge blog.

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Stamps:  Instant Photo: Holidays, Keep it Simple: Christmas (PTI)
Accessories:  Pierced snowflake dies (MFT)

    OH. MY. GOODNESS!!! I studied the photo for hours (well, maybe not hours but for a long time) trying to figure out how you achieved a 'puffy paint' look! Should likely have read your post right off the hop and would have discovered that it was the embossed snowflake that created this lovely dimension. So cool!

    Cool, was wondering if you embossed it until I saw your close-up!
