Spotlighting an Inchie

I've never made an inchie card before, so today is a first.  It's also one of the few Christmas cards I've gotten around to making this year.....I'd better get started on that.  LOL



I used the wreath set from Flourishes, which I can't find on their website.  I stamped it in Momento ink twice.  I cut out an inchie from the second image and colored it up. In hindsight, I should have colored it first, then cut it out. I popped it up on the image.


Challenges for this card:

Flourishes Bring Back Beautiful
Fussy and Fancy Fridays--new technique
Ellen Hutson WCM Challenge at the CLASSroom
Cupcake Craft Challenges--B and W Christmas
CD Sunday--nature's wonders

    Hi Janet, a beautiful 'inchie' card for your first attempt. However, you do not say if you have used something from a CD in your design. As we are a CD challenge blog and state that a CD is to be used I am afraid you will not be eligible to take part in our prize draw.
    I hope this doesn't put you off joining in with us and hope to see you again.
    Hugs

    Very unusual Janet. But unless you've used a CD rom in your design you can't enter the CD Sunday Challenge. Such a shame.
