Hi friends! It's time for a brand new Card Concept challenge to inspire you! I loved the inspiration graphic, as I've been wishing for a typewriter that looks like this one for many years. Aqua and pink are such a lovely combination, I'm sure there will be a feast of fabulous creations in the lineup this challenge!
It's also sneaky peek week at Verve, so I just *had* to use the new Jolly Jingles set we're peeking today. The Sweet Peppermint line from Prima just arrived and was the perfect start to this mixed media collage style Christmas card.
I started by collaging three different torn strips of patterned paper onto a 4 x 5.25" piece of cardstock with matte medium. I added a few bits of washit tape here and there and then fingerpainted on some gesso to blend them all together. Next I cut the bingo card and the let there be peace on earth panels from patterned paper, distressing the edges and adding a bit of gesso as well.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to hop on over to The Card Concept blog to see what the other designers have cooked up to inspire you today.
