Are you ready for retro, for winter, for all things sparkly and kitsch? Then you are ready for The Heart Desires Challenge 7!
I have a few other cards up my sleeve for this challenge, as it’s just so darn inspiring– but aren’t they all? This card is a bit less of that kitschy mid-century vibe, but it does incorporate the Snow Fun papers by Carta Bella that will take you back to a snowy fun day in th 50’s!
I used a wood veneer tree from Richard Garay’s Lumberjack collection– a nice contrast to the cherry wood of the die cut moose, which is by Echo Park. Tonya has a fabulous die set, Buck and Doe from Gina Marie of which the Buck would have fit perfectly here.
The pink plaid is from Bloom paper collection.
The sentiment is part of the Snow Fun collection by Carta Bella. In the photo above, you can see how I have propped up and curved it on the vellum die cut.
It has been stamped with silver Delicata ink and heat embossed.
Thanks for dropping by and walking through a snowy woodland with me. Make sure to play along this month! You have until the last day of 2016! Can you believe it!
Can’t wait to see what festive creations you submit!
Happy holidays!
