Are you YETI for Christmas?

Hi Friends! Hope you all are well. Today, I'm sharing my first Christmas card for this year. I took a step and get into the Christmas spirit before Halloween and Thanksgiving! I simply couldn't resist! 😅 I played along this week's MFT Sketch Challenge #506 and here is my take...  

I colored the cute little yeti and gift boxes from the BB Beast Friends stamps set using distress ink. I then used the coordinating die set to cut them out. According to the sketch, I cut out a layer of card with scalloped border using the Stitched Mini Scallop Rectangle STAX Die-namics set from MFT.



On the layer card, I used Cracked Pistachio, Evergreen Bough and Salty Ocean distress inks to create a winter-snowy-scene. First, I cut out a small circular piece of masking paper and place it on top left corner of the layer card to create a 'moon' image. Then, I started blending the distress inks and filled the background. To have a snowfall effect, I splattered the card with water and let it dry. I love this sentiment from this set and thought it would be perfect for first Christmas card. I stamped the sentiment and heat embossed with white embossing powder. Finally, I adhered all together on the base card.

Hope you like my card! Thanks for stopping by.

Wishing you all a great day!
