AYLI - Circle embellishments

 
Hello my crafty friends. Hope this Thursday finds you well wherever you are in the world. 


I have a sweet Christmas card to share with you today to encourage you to join in with the new challenge at


where we are thinking about embellishments, round ones in particular, and why you choose to adorn your cards with them.

As I have said lots of times I am always mindful of flatness for posting so my "go to" round/circle embellishments are clear gems. They add a little bit of sparkle but do not add bulk to a card. They are also incredibly easy to colour with alcohol markers to match any papers. On this occasion I just left them clear.


The adorable LOTV digi image was coloured with Promarkers and I used silver mirri card and a pale blue satin mirri card for layers. A squeeze of stardust stickles was added for the snow and fur!!

Thank you for dropping in and we look forward to seeing your favourite circle embellishments.

See you soon xx

I agree totally about the postage thing and the colouring with alcohol markers, as well as a great way to add just that little touch of bling!
This cute LOTV image hasn't made it into my stash....yet!
It was a lovely autumnal walk with Max this morning, views as far as the welsh hills to the west and the Staffordshire moors to the east! :)

This card is just adorable, Sarah and as usual, you have those little cuties beautifully. I love the glittered hat - you must let me know which one you use because it really looks like tinsel!
Hope you are well.
Take care.
Hugs

Oh how gorgeous is that image Sarah?!! LOVE it on a slimline like this, what a gorgeous creation hun. The gems are perfect, I was hunting some down last night at mine, for a make I'm doing, but couldn't find them! Crafting out of packed boxes is no fun. Sigh, will have to just admire yours here. Hugs, Wends xoxo
