Gecko Galz: White Christmas

 Hello!

Over at the Gecko Galz Challenge blog ,the November theme is White Christmas, so I thought I would continue with that theme for my DT day.

I have made a selection of cards using images from Gnome for the Holidays. The images all have a lovely vintage vibe. 

The first one here depicts some cute little gnomes skating in the snow,. Look at the sledge made from a nut shell - how adorable.  I decided to make a shaker card, using silver sequins as snow.

In this close up photograph you can see the flecks of glitter I applied over the falling snow. The shaker box was built up by using several pieces of die cut card.

My second card  features a gnome peeping out of his doorway. His lantern lights up the night sky.

The gnome has glossy accents on his cold nose and also on his lantern.

My third card features a trio of cheeky gnomes. One holds a lantern, one holds a gift. They all have warm and cosy mittens and hats.

I used some paper from the Merry and Bright ATC set as background  for these gnomes and applied glossy accents to their noses and to the lantern. The cute sentiment was stamped.

This last card was the one I made for the Customer Inspiration post. It uses a beautiful image from the Snow Time Fantasy collage set.

 I added a silver glitter, die cut tree and two kraft card die cut deer to replicate those in the image. I also added glitter to the snowflakes and a banner of silver snowflakes along the top edge.
