This card is one using scraps that I already had:

Christmas Mittens

Despite it being late Spring, it has felt reasonably cold here most of the day so it was a good day for doing inside things.  I had some inspiration for a card today, so here it is:

Beccy's Place - Month of Holiday Cards
https://beccysplace.blogspot.com/2024/11/a-month-of-holiday-cards-challenge.html

I have used two papers from paper pads.  The image is from Pattie's Creations.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added ribbon to the tag and also across the bottom of the card.  I also added a couple of glitter foam snowflakes.

This is the sketch that I followed:


 

Envelope for Gift Card

I couldn't find any double-sided A4 cardstock for this make - probably have somewhere but just couldn't find where I put it.  So, I decided to make this an elegant envelope for a gift card by using pearlescent cardstock.

I have used the following E:

Share your love with family and friends

 It is the start of the November Challenge at Path of Positivity.  The optional theme for November is Power of Words: Friends/Family

I have used a digital paper from PixelScrapper.   The images at the top of the page are by Sassy Studio Designs but I'm unsure of the source of the three images at the bottom of the page (they may or may not be by the same artist). Colouring is with copic markers.  I also inked a text stamp and applied that on top of the digital paper.

Beccy's Place - Month of Holiday Cards
https://beccysplace.blogspot.com/2024/11/a-month-of-holiday-cards-challenge.html

I have used some digital paper from Create with TLC.  I also embossed a piece of cardstock.  The image and sentiments are from Beccy's Place.  Colouring is with copic markers.  I added some glassine bauble stickers that I have had for a long time along with a candle ephemera.

I followed this sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday (which I rotated to work with the image I'd chosen)
