Hello,
welcome to my little crafting place
Have you got any of Yana Smakula's wonderful Everyday City Holiday dies ? The one with the department store (or block of flats) plus windows and various other add-ons that help make the most of the basic idea? This year, Yana has added a Mansard Roof, some lovely new sentiments (for Glimmer or Betterpress) and a really cute set which allows you to 'wrap up' the whole building with ribbon, bow and garlands of ivy. The details are all in the info at the bottom of this post
For my first card I thought I'd try just using the Mansard Roof as rooftops are always cute for Christmas cards - maybe on a starry background, or with Santa and his sleigh whooshing over the tops of the houses
As I've recently got a little pot of Splatter White, of course I had to try in out and make a show flurry background.a bit of a snowstorm!
I "may" have got carried away with the snow - I'd made the snowy background and glued the Mansard Roof in place before I realised that there would be snowflakes on that section too - so I had to add more. I'll remember next time!
I used various blue inks directly onto my white card blank for the dark sky background and the rest of the card is from the Full 48 ColorWheel Cardstock Pack 8.5" x 11"
The sentiment is one from Holiday Hugs Sentiments BP-386
from Spellbinders
