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.
The gnome has glossy accents on his cold nose and also on his lantern.
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.
(this can be one of the freebies or, of course, you can buy at the Etsy store!)
Also if you sign up for the Gecko Galz newsletter, you'll be able to claim a free collage sheet each month and get first claim on the monthly $1 deals!
