Purple foil world map


For this card I made my own background, using a stencil from Kaisercraft and foil with a laminator. The shine looks really nice IRL, but it's hard to photograph. I also splattered with metallic champagne colored watercolor paint to add some snow. A die cut Santa with his sleigh and reindeer, sentiment made with a Tim Holtz die and my DYMO.

This card is for:
Allsorts - #654 Wings and/or Tails (reindeer have tails)
Sparkles Forum Christmas - #131 Non-traditional Colours
Happy Little Stampers Stencils December - Anything Goes

    Splendidly vibrant holiday season greeting. It's always inspiring to see less traditional hues used in a festive setting like this.

    Wishing you a joyful ten days until Santa returns! :)

    I don't know why I lost this card. It's really bold, bright and sparkling! And love the idea of Santa's sleight that run in the world sky. Love all that purple with the gold "Merry"!
