Now, on to my project! :) Today's sponsor is one of my *favorites*, Winnie & Walter. I adore Shay, she is one of the nicest people I've been fortunate enough to "meet" through this hobby, and I love being a part of her stamping family! :)
To create my card, I started by first stamping the Mini Scenery: Merry Berry image in Versamark ink onto coral CS, then heat set the image with clear embossing powder. I then adhered the embossed panel to a piece of white CS before attaching it to a light gray card base with foam tape. Next, I die cut my sentiment from silver foil using the In a Word: Noel Cutaway. To finish up, a strip of aqua CS was adhered to the card front, the sentiment was attached to the card base using foam tape and glue (where needed), then I embellished with yellow enamel dots.
It’s not a party without a prize - and with prizes every day there are several chances to win! Today’s prize is generously supplied by Winnie & Walter, so you’ll definitely want to win! :) Simply leave a comment on this post - then head back to taheerah-atchia.com and leave a comment there too!
