Anything goes with a Candles, lights and all things bright option Allsorts challenge week 598

 


Our new theme at Allsorts challenge is Anything goes with a Candles, lights and all things bright option chosen by Helene.

For my DT card I took a piece of card and colour washed it with CE watercolour shimmer paints. Then I ran it through a Crafters Companion Embossing folder and then went over the raised areas with a red ink pad and gilding wax and a little glitter glue. I added stamped lights and candles from an old Crafters Companion stamp set. I also coloured these with the shimmer paints.

Love those embossed xmas words. Ahhh, you've linked to Let's Squash It! but you have the Christmas Kickstart badge. Maybe you want to add the Let's Squash It! badge and a link at Christmas Kickstart if you hurry LOL. Thanks for joining the fun at Let's Squash It! and maybe Christmas Kickstart Challenge. Hugz
