Blue and Silver Christmas

Another Christmas card for the box!


Its another one of my inky backgrounds - Chipped Sapphire, Stormy Sky and Tumbled Glass Distress Inks.  I sprayed water through a stencil to add some interest and also sprayed over with Dazzling Diamond Glimmer Mist.  The snowflakes are from a set called Must Love Snowflakes by Casual Fridays and some were stamped in Distress Inks and some with silver pigment ink embossed with silver detail powder.  The sentiment is from Hobby Art Christmas Post and is stamped with Majestic Blue Versafine embossed with clear powder then coloured in with True Blue Promarker.  I added dots of silver Stickles to finish it off.

I would like to enter the following challenge:

Scrapology - Blue and Silver Christmas

Have a lovely weekend and thank you so much for visitng me - I haven't been around to visit much again, sorry!  Will be catching up this weekend.  I appreciate your visits and comments so much! Take care!  Christine xxx
