A Cup of Christmas Cheer

 I belong to a card exchange group in New Zealand and this month, we had to use "Swinking" on our card.  I will be posting the card I made for that one later today or tomorrow but while I was practicing the technique I made the background for this card:

The Outlawz Monday Challenge - Stitching In A Contrasting Colour

I followed a technique called Swinking and the tutorial can be found here.

The bottom part of the card is a digital paper from Lozzy.  The image and sentiment are from Twinkle Lane Designs.  Colouring is with copic markers - and I added Glossy Accents to the candy canes.  The "stitching" is added with a green copic marker.

I followed this sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches:

  2. Nice card Suze,

    I saw your question about "label". The correct translation of "label" is tag, good luck with the challenge
    Kind regards Aniet
