Hello Bloggers,
a winter card today. I finally got to use an idea that had dawned upon me when I already had no time for time-consuming experiments before Christmas. Now, I'll just have to use the card next winter :)
One thing - I do not own a single sleigh die, so... I used a corner and a straight line dies to create some sleigh looking thing. Kind of worked, I guess :)
The other tricky piece is the white wall. It is all one piece. The chandelier on the side is die cut only partially and so is the window. The uncut edges hold them together. I cut the chandelier first, then the window and then I embossed the wall using a folder. Finally the window had to be embossed manually with a flower shaper ball pen and the window die itself.
I added some glitter and some gems.
Used:
Thanks for stopping by!
