Well I haven't used my Anya's in what seems like ages so took the opportunity and dusted them off to make another christmas card to add to my growing pile! I still need to make a lot more and with only 71 days left until the day itself (see my widget!) I suspect you may see a lot of christmas cards over the coming weeks!
As some of you may know I love the technique of paper piecing which happens to be the challenge over at Anyone for Anya? this week so I just had to enter! I decided to paper piece her scarf, but not entirely sure it works with the stripey paper?! Oh well too late now! Lol!
Materials:
Image: From the Anya Rain, Snow, Shine set. Coloured with Koh-i-noors and Sansodor
Paper: DCWV Christmas stack (2007 & 2008)
CS: DCWV
Sentiment: Woodware
Tools: distress inks, sponge, cuttlebug snowflake die, swiss dots embossing folder
Misc:white funky foam from stash, blue adhesive pearls from papermania, white pearl from Quixotic Paperie, Icicle Stickles.
