Stamping&Blogging Sketch Challenge card using Star framelits

October 15, 2014 By Michelle Last

I made a simple Christmas card for the Stamping&Blogging sketch challenge using the Trim the Tree paper stack and the star framelits.

Star framelits Christmas card

I love using non-traditional Christmas colours and I chose some neutral patterned paper and inked the edges using early espresso ink and corner rounded them too!  I cut the star using the two smallest star framelits and the dazzling diamonds glimmer paper and added a cheeky little sentiment from the FREE set good greetings.

You only have till the end of October to grab this super versatile stamp set for FREE and if you place a £200+ order, not only will you get the £30 hostess rewards (choose any products of your choice for FREE) but you also get the Good Greetings set for FREE too! (If you are placing an online order it will automatically ask you to choose the wood or clear mount set of your choice).

I added a little bell I had here too, just to make it impossible to send in the post 🙂

Here is the sketch which inspired me –

Interactive Mini Album I've been busy behind the Interactive Mini Album

I've been busy behind the scenes creating a special mini album for my team retreat this weekend. I can't wait to spend time with my wonderful team—being creative together, sharing lots of laughs and making this beautiful keepsake. If you've followed me for a while, you'll know I have a real love for mini albums. They're one of my favourite ways to preserve memories because they tell a story that's far bigger than a single scrapbook page....
