O for Overlay, a DT card for ABC Christmas Challenge

Hi and welcome to a new challenge at ABC Christmas Challenge.

 O is the letter,  Lols is our host and her theme is:

O FOR OVERLAY!

I have used an image given to us from our sponsor 'All Dressed Up',

it's a digi stamp and it's called 'It's Snowing'

I have a soft spot when it comes to snowmen! 

I printed the image directly onto the white card stock,

coloured it with my Prisma Color Pencils,

 embossed a piece of vellum and put that on top of the card.

The words 'Merry Christmas' is cut out in some glittery paper 

with a die from Simon Says Stamp

Here you can se the little cutie and his bird.

I loved this card so much that I had to make a pink version as well. 

 Lovely!

Our sponsor for this challenge is:

All Dressed Up.

Winner will receive two free digis of their choice

from Wendy’s Etsy shop

Hi I am Wendy Burns I live in Nottingham UK with my husband and

 two children who have been the inspiration behind the characters, in particular my daughter who has kept me up-to-date with blogging and trends. I work predominantly within the textile children’s wear market, fashion and interiors.

I trained as a textile designer and although my work is digital based, I love to retain that hand drawn /sewn feel which I hope comes across in my artwork.

Digital stamps is a new challenge for me and the opportunity to work with the All Dressed Up Team and has been very exciting, in particular the creative way my characters have been given individual personalities by the designers .

All Dressed Up is a newly launched blog with an enthusiastic team who are passionate about stamping.  The coordinators Marilyn and Tracy along with an amazing design team are also known as The Dressy Girls.

We have a friendly Facebook page, regular blog posts, tutorials, challenges and freebies. The stamps can be purchased from the Etsy shop which is updated on a monthly basis. We really are friendly bunch and would love to see your creations so please feel free to contact us and visit the All Dressed Up Challenge Blog.

For more inspiration from my lovely DT buddies, please pop over to the ABC Christmas Challenge.

I hope you will join in the challenge and have fun.

Der er lidt stille på min blog for tiden, vi holder ferie i vores

sommerhus og venter med længsel  på sommervarmen.

 Yes I know this is not a female birthday card,

 my card is made for my nephew's birthday last month. 

So I guess you can say I went for the 'Anything Goes' option this time.

 It's the first time I'm inking up this stamp, it's called 'Gouda Wish'. 

I just love it, but I must admit the size of the image surprised me a bit.

The papers are 'Birthday Wishes' from Eco Park.

I had to make a little special 'handmade by' this time for the back of the card.

Thanks for looking and I hope you will join in with the challenge!
