PanPastel UK #48 ....

The second last theme of the year over at PanPastel UK is "Song Title/Carol"


I don't know about you but I am starting to panic ever so slightly .... I have no cards written or pressies bought eeeeek! Talk about leaving it until the last minute (say this every year lol).

For the background I used kraft cardstock which was embossed using the Tim Holtz Snow Flurries & Snowman Texture Fades Embossing Folders, I used Burnt Sienna to add a hint of colour. I then used Yellow Ochre over neutral cardstock which was then stamped with the music background from Tim Holtzs Mini Holidays stamp set in Archival Ink (Sepia) before being embossed with the snowman image and more Burnt Sienna being added. The words are from the Ideaology Chit Chat stickers book.

As always there is a trial set of PanPastels up for grabs courtsey of our sponsor.

Until next time stay inky! x

Wonderful - love the embossed snowman within the music stamping and those "reverse" snowflakes - so cool! Second time today I've seen that fab music stamp... very lovely...

Lovely card Gillian. At least that's one off your list ..... one more than me I might add, lol! I have got my pressie shopping done though but I wish (and how) I'd done my cards early like I used to.

Anyway, back to your fab card. I love the embossing from the folders especially the shadowy effect of the snowman with the music stamping.
Hugs

You are leaving it a bit late, but I bet you still manage to pull it all off in style, and make some fab cards too! Love your embossed card for Pan Pastel's. Michelle x
