Mixed Media Card Challenge - Home (Lace Optional)



I love this sentiment stamp from MFT, and knew I wanted to use it as soon as I saw this months theme for the Mixed Media Card Challenge was "Home". The shaker box card was created using white cardstock oversprayed with Heidi Swapp Gold, filled with a combination of Ruby Rock-It Snow White coarse glitter and red hearts inside the shaker. I love that when you stand the card upright, all the little hearst and snow disappears behind the Memory Box Countryside die cut, so all the hearts do come "home" for Christmas! The MFT sentiment is stamped in gold and embossed in gold, and I love the little detail the Lil Inkers Stitched Circle die-cuts add.


Hope you get to play along, I can't wait to see what you create!

The Design Team have some FABULOUS creations to inspire you!
Play along til December 25th, Christmas Day!!!

  15. This is such a sweet and cozy card, perfect for Christmas. I love this sentiment with that die, and your hearts that hide at home when the card is upright is such a neat trick. Thanks for the heads up about this challenge--I just linked up.
