IBSIC #69

Well why not!!!

      Yes, I have completed all three colour combinations for the IBS challenge. As I said I am on a mission to make the most 'non-traditional' Christmas cards ever this year.
                 The theme of this one is very traditional but the colours are different.
The colours were:     Cream, Baby Blue(which has turned out slightly grey in the photo) and Red.


I stenciled the cream cardstock with Memento Summer Sky ink to form the brickwork pattern and using the Gothic window and luminary die from Poppy stamps cut out the frame. The tree die is from Australian Simply Cards Magazine. The saying from IBS Festive Frame set. Flower from IBS too.

   That completes my creative afternoon and I hope you are having a creative day too.

    1. Thanks Lindsay. I actually made a mistake with it! That is why I have cream on the outside but a blue window, haha It fitted the theme however and I think it is fun when you learn by making mistakes!
