Christmas progressive challenge - Christmas bells button

-
Today I crafted a lot!!!I made a bunch of cards and tags, etc with the digis that I colored yesterday while at the NSD day from Scrapbook central.

I was able with all this to create 12 different items ;)  But no... not ahead... I had a really busy week last week and didn't craft... so I'm paying the price.  But I still got to have some fun and one of them is with the wonderful digi from Priscilla styles called Christmas buttons.  It's a freebie if you participated in the last challenge (see the link to the challenge at the bottom).  What's fabulous is I get to create some Christmas cards ahead of time!  So I might actually have some to give away as a gift.


I used all left over paper to make this!  Love that.  I used my Grand circle and scallop circle from Spellbinder.  I added some snowflake buttons and some twine from my stash.

I used my copics to color the image and used my zig pens for the gold.


I followed this wonderful sketch:


I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

  1. 52 Christmas card Throwdown - Sketch
  2. Christmas card challenges - Shaped card
  3. Lady annes challenges -christmas-progressive-challenge-4 - challenge with freebie 
So that's it for me for tonight!  Hope you have a wonderful night... just finished watching the Hab's getting totally creamed by the Senators of Ottawa :(  So many fights tonight... hope they are doing better in the next game!  BTW I'm talking hockey lol

Hugs

    Changing your card base to a circle puts a fun spin on the sketch! It looks great! The bells really stand out against the red background. Thanks for sharing your card in this week's challenge at 52{C}CT. I hope you'll join us again soon.
