C4C162 Here comes.....

Happy weekend!

It's time for a brand new Crazy 4 Challenges ~ C4C162!!! The theme this week is to CREATE A CARD INSPIRED BY ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE  CHRISTMAS CAROLS!!!!

Here is my idea...can you guess what song I went for????


I inked up the Flourishes Santa, I Believe Set. The sentiment is from the Flourishes Sweets of the Season Set. The card base was created with the Flourishes Classic Ivory CS. The second layer features the DP from the Authentique Loyal Collection. All of my edges were ink distressed with the Ranger Antique Linen Pad.  Next I added the Solid Wrinkled Red Ribbon, a Stamped Metal Brad and a Doily. The main image was inked in Memento Tuxedo Black. I also used these Copic Markers on the holly berries ~ R29, BG78. To finish it all off I added the Red Kaiser Rhinestones.

Please make sure to swing by the C4C Blog for all the beautiful cards the team has created!!!

Thank you for taking the time to stop by today.......enjoy your weekend,

                                                                  Hugs, ~Silke~

Silke, this brought me back at least 63 years. That face on Santa Clause is epic. I like it very much and thank you.
