Billie and Monika`s Challenge: Christmas Manly Card In Gray








I and Billie made since last year Billie and Monika`s Challenge each other. This time is my turn to choose the theme. The theme is: Christmas Manly card with self made background. So here is my card:











I  inspired by Judy`s card here:



I stamped the snowflakes and embossed it with white embossing powder. Then I choose gray Distress ink and blended it on the white cardstock. I then die cutting the lamp and adhere on the left side.






I die cutting too the ground using the curve die. The sentiment is PTI. I stamped it with gray ink.





I hope I you have time to look at Billie`s Blog and look what a lovely Christmast card she made...

  3. Liebe Monika,
    deine Karte gefällt mir sehr gut. Die Laterne strahlt solo heftig, ich glaube, die strahl so, weil bald Weihnachten ist und sie allen eine Freude mit ihrem Licht machen will.
    Liebe Grüße, Flo
