FFC18 - Merry Christmas


Time for some mid-challenge inspiration for Festive Friday!



I made this star by drawing a pencil outline of my largest star nestability and then using one stamp from Paper Smooches' Design Motifs to connect each side. I love how the inks overlap and blend. This new Impress sentiment was the perfect size to finish the card off (along with some Stickles for sparkle!)

There's still time for you to play along - the deadline is Wednesday. Hope to see you there!
