Challenge #363 - A Christmas Card - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers can you believe we are only about 6 weeks away and of course the majority of us are struggling to get all our cards done for family and friends, luckily Im not to bad as I had already made most of mine and have written them up ready to post, so this week we want to see a


A Christmas Card

so Im sure it wont be to much of a problem to get one done for our themed Challenge.
 And you will find beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from to. Our Sponsors are and as always our sponsers are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website.

But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.
And here is the Card I made for the theme
this image is titled "Gingerbread House" and I made the card for one of my great grandsons, last year they created one from a kit they bought in the local supermarket and my did they have a lot of fun with it, you will find it here
I printed it onto white card and coloured it with my copic pens then cut it out with one of my Nestabilitie dies, and used a larger one with red card for the mount. The sentiment is stamped onto another piece of card and I used the same die design to cut it out and a larger one for the mount.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of red card and I then used the backing paper that came with the image, you will find it here, and then placed the mounted image in the middle and the sentiment below on the right handside.
To finish of I used several cake and other buttons along the bottom and right edge to give it a bit of a zing. Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to our The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and I hope you will want to take part in this "A Christmas Card" themed Challenge.

A bright fun card but it doesn't follow our sketch over at Try Stampin On Tuesday. You may want to add another one for this week's challenge.
