Evening all. Have you got all your Christmas cards made and posted? I hope I have but I do have a few spare just in case.
So today I'm up on the Uniko blog with an idea for a New Year card that was inspired by a couple of challenges. What do you think?
On an A6 top fold, white note card, I stamped the Background Blocks- Party Confetti in Versamark and embossed with jewelled gold EP. On a separate panel of white, I used the numerals from the Alphabet Solid set to create the 2026 in more of the jewelled gold EP. This was mounted on a slightly larger black one then added over my confetti with foam pads. A simple sentiment from Simply Said Blocks Christmas in black completes.
The layout of this card is also a nod to the CAS Colours and Sketches as it users the square layout of this former 2025 sketch made seasonal.
This layout is a square one and mine is rectangular but the 4 squares are represented on mine by the numerals of the year! The gold EP always says celebration but it also reflects the saris in the photo inspiration over at Time Out!

I chose the sketch #560

ReplyDeleteOh Julie, I love your creative way of looking at that photo and bringing in your stunning CAS design. Can anyone guess this was inspired by Indian outfits?
