Hey Everyone
Sketch challenges are my fav and my go-to as the starting point to any card. The sketch at TGIF Challenges is a fabulous one and had me reaching for my new Trees for Sale Stamp Set and matching Tree Lot Dies.
I would never have thought I’ve love a caravan die set, but I totally love these Tree Lot Dies and couldn’t wait to use them. So I managed to make them work for the sketch.
I cut the caravan in Basic White Cardstock and then another one in Basic Gray Cardstock. I cut the tire and the axel from the second diecut. I then took the dies for the top and bottom detail and cut these with some Pool Party Cardstock. The wreath was then cut with Bermuda Bay and Cherry Cobbler Cardstocks.
The trees (from the Trees for Sale Stamp Set) have been stamped with Pool Party Ink and Bermuda Bay Ink with the two step stamping images. These trees have then been cut out with the dies from the Tree Lot Dies.
I didn’t stop there. I die cut a light pole with Basic Gray Cardstock and stamped up some lights and coloured the globes with the Dark Mango Melody Blend. There’s a die to cut these out also!
The mountains in the back have been cut the Majestic Mountain Dies and I used a dauber to add some Crumb Cake Ink to the top of them. I then added a torn piece of Pool Party Cardstock across the bottom of the card.
The sentiment is from the Leaves of Holly Stamp Set. This sentiment fit my card the best and is fussy cut out.
The trees and caravan have been layered on a Basic White Cardstock circle die cut to match the sketch.
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers

I love your card Narelle. Who would have thought a caravan could make a splendid eyecatcher on a christmas card! Thank you for playing with TGIF challenges. You’ll get my vote.
