Time Out Challenge #277

We have a quote for the Inspired by Words challenge at Time Out.  You can use the entire quote or any of the words it contains for your project.  "There truly is not an occasion, that is not improved by wearing something festive."  Emma Straub  We're generously sponsored by Top Flight Stamps.  

Should be no surprise that I focused on the word "festive" and made another Christmas card for my DT project.  This time I began with a background panel that's been waiting a long time to be used.  

Winnie and Walter's The Peppermint Zone cover plate was die cut from white cardstock and layered over a red textured panel.  Luckily, I found more of the red cardstock in my stash and used it to die cut the PTI sentiment.  To make it stand out a bit more, I added a couple more layers, brushed with shimmer and covered with Nuvo glaze.  

The double snowflakes were made with 6 of the Pinkfresh Layered Snowflakes.  I attached them only in the centers and gently lifted the ends.  They're also brushed with shimmer and adorned with sparkly Taylored Expressions gems.  Pretty simple card, but I think it's fun and festive.  There's a lot more inspiration on the blog from our guest designer and my teammates.  Check out all the challenge details and why not play along?
