Guest Designing for 52CCT

Hi Everyone,

Merry Christmas to you! I hope you have peaceful and enjoyable Holidays! but in case you want to get some crafting in and work on you Christmas card stash for next year I have something for you! The new challenge at 52CCT, where I am honored to be guest designer for this week. The theme is brads or eyelets - I am sure you have them lying around in your stash......

I used the pretty Christmas tree from Katzelkraft and added star shaped brads and some pearls. I used thin cardboard for the card base to have a bit more heft for the brads. I brushed the background in part with gold delicata ink - gives it a nice shimmer, although it does not show up well in this photo. 
Added lots of splatters and painted on more "snow". The sentiment is a die from STAMPlorations - doubled up for more sturdiness. I also added thin copper thread and strung it around the big top brad.

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting! and don't forget to kink up your card with 52CCT!

Happy Stamping!

Was für eine wunderschöne Weihnachtskarte!!! Super, dass Du den Hintergrund im oberen Drittel gelb gestaltet hast, ich finde, dass dadurch alles in noch hellerem Licht strahlt.
