Alcohol inked celeste snowflake tag.

 


Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at CAS Christmas and Trina has chosen the theme of non traditional colours. It will be fun to see the colours in the gallery other than red and green.


The design team and our guest Vicky have some wonderful inspiration for you, so I hope you can play along.

This background was in my stash and from memory its alcohol inks on glossy cardstock, blues, silver and a touch of purple. 
I diecut one from my background and another from white card , so I can used the reverse pieces on a second card. It was a bit fiddly inlaying the diecut pieces but I like the effect.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where it's anything goes.
CAS on Friday, Christmas.

Merry Little Christmas Challenge, anything Christmas goes.


Stamplorations CAS Challenge, without the optional colour twist.



Supplies:
Poppystamps celeste snowflake tag; glossy card; alcohol inks; sentiment sticker; hammered card base.

Thanks for visiting,
Cathy x
