Crafts Galore Encore: Vintage Christmas

 Hello

Today sees that start of a new challenge at Crafts Galore Encore. 

The theme is always 'Anything Goes' and you can enter up to 3 different projects.  The challenge runs all month until mid day (GMT) 30th December.

This month's challenge is kindly sponsored by Gecko Galz.

Here is what I made:

It's a tri-fold card decorated with papers from the Stephanie Paper Pack, matted onto gold card. The edges of the papers have been heat embossed in gold.

The image is from the Once Upon a Time Junk Journal Kit. This image was heat embossed in gold along the edges, as was the sentiment which is from the Christmas in Nature ATC set.

I decided to add some die cut gold baubles to the side panels.

From above it looks like this:

I cut the base of the card from some pearlised, embossed card that I've had in my stash for years - it's perfect for this style of card as both sides are pearlised and it saves having to cover the back of the card as well. There is room on the back for any greetings and messages.

Here is how it folds up to fit a standard 5 x 7inch envelope.

That's all for now.

Many thanks to Leanne at Gecko Galz for her generous prize of a $25 store voucher for our random winner.

Please pop over to Crafts Galore Encore to see the DT's wonderful designs and to enter our challenge. 

We'd love to see your creations.

Remember the challenge is always 'Anything Goes' and so you can create any type of project - it doesn't have to be a card and you can enter up to 3 times.

Thanks for stopping by today!
