Craftlandia Challenge 21

It is the 22nd December so time for another challenge over at Craftlandia on Mia's blog Craftartista.



The theme for Craftlandia 21 is
 cold or anything goes

These cards started with a piece of yupo paper that I covered with alcohol ink and a little bit of silver foil. I think it worked really well as a sky backdrop for my wintry scene. The die is called cottage snow globe scene by Creative Expressions, the sentiment stamp and the insert stamp are by Uniko.


As you can see, I made two.


My second wintry card is made with a Hero Arts letterpress and foil plate called snowy night. I do love the effect of this one. I have used Momento London fog dye ink. It has such a dramatic look and feels really wintry. The sentiment is a Spellbinders press plate that I have foiled.


I hope you like my wintry cards and get a chance to join us at Craftlandia 21 over on Mia's blog. Don't forget that there are prizes to be won, so make you you check it out.

I don't suppose I shall be posting again before Christmas so I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Thank you so much for all your support and inspiration over the last 12 months.

I shall definitely be back on 2nd Jan for the December card chain challenge reveal, but I may pop in before that, you never know.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.

These are absolutely gorgeous! I don't know which one I like more! I love the gorgeous sky made of alcohol ink in the first one, and the look of the grey monotone in the second. Oh, both of the scenes are wonderful! Great cards, Hilary! You sure brought out the best out of them!

Love the alcohol ink wintry skies Hilary, which look really dramatic against your white silhouette skyline. I agree the foil letterpress gives a beautiful wintry effect. Merry Christmas to you and your family xx
