Allsorts Challenge #702


Hi there, it's Saturday so it's time for another weekly Allsorts Challenge. This week Lorraine has chosen the theme and it is

*** Anything Goes with the option to Add Number(s) ***

This week we have 2 great prizes on offer:

First, a £15 store voucher from Stamp Addicts 
 

For a second winner we also have 3 digi images of the winner's choice from  Ruth Hamilton Design


Here's my card for this week.


This week I took the unusual step of making a CAS One Layer Card (OLC). I masked my base card and created a panel of distress blue ink, then stamped my focal tree in Twilight Versafine Clair. I stamped my grungy numbers over the panel and my Christmas sentiment. White Posca paint spatters for snow and a little "grounding" of the tree plus some Sakura sparkle pen on the branches to indicate frost, and I was done! 

Stamps: Visible Image Christmas Eve (tree), Distressed Christmas (numbers); Uniko Christmas Wishes;
Media: Tim Holtz Distress oxide ink (Blueprint Sketch); Versafine Clair (Twilight, Medieval Blue); Posca pen (white), Sakura Stardust pen (clear).

Challenges I would like to enter:
