A Christmas Card

I decided after my cutie cards over past 2 days that I needed to make a Christmas Card for raise my ticker LOL.

This card is 5" x 5" and an unusual one for me but tried something new with both the colour combo and heat embossing (which I don't do much unfortunately)

The card fits the following challenges:-
  1. Colour Create #72 - Purple, Blue & Silver
  2. Bah Humbug #22 - Surprise - your own theme - I chose Snowflakes
  3. CAS-ual Friday #5 - Sketch
  4. Oldie but Goodie #20 - Lots of Layers

IMAGES & SENTIMENT:
Personal Impressions Christmas Set
MEDIUM:
Purple ink pad & Versamark pad
Clear & silver embossing powders
TOOLS:
Cuttlebug
Marianne Designs Frame from SECRET CRAFTER
Magnolia Doohickey Lace border die from CRAFTS U LOVE

OTHERS:
