Baked With Love

 

It's time for the final challenge for 2022 over at The Paper Funday.

Our challenges are alway Anything Goes with an optional twist.

The twist this time is 'Holiday Time'

We are very fortunate to have 2 sponsors for each challenge this year which means we get to choose which artist we would like to work with. This is really great as it gives us double the choice. We are very lucky with the amazing sponsors that are lined up this year, many of which are old favourites and some that are new to me.

This month we are sponsored by Mirtillamente & Varada Sharma Designs

For this challenge I chose to work with Edible Holidays from Varada Sharma Designs

This is a really great pack with 3 sentiments and 8 images of cookies and sweet treats for Christmas.

This card has been made using a sketch from Kendra's Card Challenge. This is the first time I am taking part in such a project. Every quarter Kendra provides a PDF which has a cutting plan for several cards using 6 sheets of 6"x6" paper. This time there are 17 card sketches for A2 size cards which are slightly smaller than the A6 cards we would normally make as a small card in the UK. This layout is sketch 16

I sized the gingerbread house to suit my card base and added some little star cookies as further decoration. These have been coloured with a combination of Promarkers, Spectrum Noir and some fineline pens for the smaller details. I fussy cut and added to the card raised on thin foam pads.

I used a sentiment from the pack and matted with a scrap of gold card.

Foe embellishments I added some pearls to the dots around the window to emulate the sugar balls you can decorate cookies with. I also added some pale gold gems to the snowflake centres on the red paper.

I hope you will join myself and our fabulous Team over at

The Paper Funday Challenge.
