Freshly Made Christmas Card

I pulled out a Hero Arts stamp that I've never inked....it isn't the easiest to use, but it worked for the Freshly Made Sketch 412, and I was able to make another Christmas card!  The sentiment is a Stampin' Up stamp. 

Freshly Made with More Shine

I'm continuing with Christmas cards for all the challenges, and I'm using delicious metallic cardstock again.  This Freshly Made Sketch was perfect for glittery silver snowflakes and a scalloped oval diecut on an embossed background of snowflakes. Under the card front is a layer of matte silver cardstock. The sentiment is from Penny Black. 

Freshly Made Sketch #311

(I missed the deadline, but am posting the card anyway. )

I am going to try to make a Christmas card for every challenge that I enter for the month of November.  I'll certainly have a variety of card designs that way!  For this Freshly Made Sketch, 

I used some beautiful silver glitter paper for the die cut and used a soft gray dry-embossed cardstock to back the die cut.  ("Scribbles and Splat die -- Sizzix/Tim Holt  and "Peace on Earth" -- Inkadinkado.)

Freshly Made with Squares and Stars

My second post today, and I might make another.   Some days, I just need to catch up with the challenges I follow and today's one of those days.  For Freshly Made Sketch 210  I chose some metallic gray cardstock to back up black squares with popped-up chipboard stars.  The stars are "artisan chipboard" from Pink Paislee, and the delicate sentiment was cut with Penny Black's "sending joy" die.  Unintentionally, I've made another Christmas card.   (Stacking the white sentiment on a black one was very tricky, probably not something I would like to duplicate very often.)

Freshly Made with Candles

Sketch 209 of Freshly Made Sketches provided the perfect opportunity to use this trio of candles die from Memory Box.  The "merry" is from PoppyStamps.  One Christmas card finished!  

Freshly Made in Grays

When I saw Sketch 163 of Freshly Made Sketches, I decided to try a monochromatic color theme.  The papers are from Little Yellow Bicycle's "Winterings."  Two snowflakes were cut from a Memory Box die and a Simon Says Stamp die and then heat-embossed in holographic powder, which doesn't show up in the photo.   The little metal snowflake was in an old stash of "stuff."
