Subway Art Christmas Card and Happy Thanksgiving!

At 613 Ave Create the theme is Subway Art - and what better stamp to use than STAMPlorations for that?  I made Christmas card, using the Vignette: Christmas Block, altough STAMPlorations has quite a few subway art stamps, including a beautiful set in the latest release.




I first stamped the sentiment onto a silver metallic paper and heat embossed it. I then dropped alcohol inks on it. I popped up this panel onto another silver metallic paper, using thin foam tape. The background I used the same stamp and stamped it repetitively onto white card stock, although it looks grey in the picture - not sure why....


Here are some more photos with different angles - its kind of tricky to photograph, because of the reflection. 


I am also linking my card with Stempelkueche - Untypische Weihnachtskarte = atypical Christmas Card
and with Uniko Studio - Anything goes and a sketch
Less is More - anything Christmassy, although this is not really a CAS card....
 Simon Says challenge - Anything Goes
Time Out challenge - embossing with the optional twist of sparkle (heat embossed my sentiment)

   



And let me not forget this - HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all of you. I am grateful that you choose to support my blog with all your wonderful comments - they keep me going and brighten my day!
THANK YOU!

By the way - there is a Black Friday sale going on at STAMPlorations:



You may want to take advantage of it!

Total außergewöhnlich und total Klasse, Cornelia! Gewagte Farbkombi, die aber fantastisch funktioniert. Wer sagt denn, dass Weihnachtskarten immer traditionell sein müssen :)

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
