A Sweet Christmas

I hope your week has gotten off to a good start! I've got a quick card to share with you today--a Christmas card, of course. ;)

I used the Viva la Verve December 2013 Week 2 Sketch for this card, and the only thing on it that isn't obvious is the red and white striped bg. All I did was emboss a square of kraft cs with a Candy Cane ef, then swiped red paint on the raised portion and used a white acrylic pen in the recessed areas. I didn't worry about covering all of it--I wanted it to look rustic. After that dried, I covered it with two coats of Distress Crackle Paint, then edged it with a silver leafing pen.

The inside is pretty simple. I used scissors for the pinked edging.

Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy the rest of your week!

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Viva la Verve December 2013 Week 2 Sketch Challenge
