It is that time of the week that I get to share my entry for this week's Global Design Project challenge! To say that I am a fan of Teneale Williams, is putting it lightly! Teneale is the Designer of this weeks sketch challenge. Before I share her sketch... this is my card....
Never in my life did I imagine a Christmas card with a Basic Black, Very Vanilla and Gold colour combo! I absolutely LOVE it!
Teneale's beautiful sketch!
Adding stitching has now almost become the norm for me...
My Product List
Hints & Things
- The Winter Wonderland Designer Series Vellum Stack is breathtakingly beautiful! At first I used up all the Gold foiled vellum in the stack - I was to scared to try the Black! I can now say that I used quite a bit of the Black foiled sheets and is just something about this Vellum Stack.... The musical note sheet from the Home For Christmas Designer Series paper worked very well with it, I think.
- My strips for the rosette measured 30.5cm x 4cm and I scored every 1cm lengthwise (using the Metric Scoring Plate with my Simply Scored scoring tool.
- I found that a hot glue gun works best to glue the rosette into shape.
- Dare to be brave...
Let me know what you think - I would love to hear from you!
Take care!

Such beautiful layering! The stitching on this card adds a wonderful accent to the already-beautiful vellum. The snowflake on the doily on the rosette of DSP...exquisite! Thank you for playing along with this week's sketch challenge for the Global Design Project!

ReplyDeleteThanks Paula! I keep my sewing machine handy for my cards, the moment fabric comes into the picture I cannot do a thing!
