Oh yes! I had so much fun today playing for a couple of challenges. Let's start with Simon Says Monday Challenge; Sparkle and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge; Christmas. (I did combine these challenges. Hopefully that's allowed...)
I do love playing with alcohol inks! I love that you never quite know what you will end up with. To the inked panel, I also added foil. Again, I love the glimmer it adds to the ink.
I used the "left over" panel for the decoration of the middle of the ornament. I'm thinking this card has sparkle, and it is definitely a Christmas card. Challenges covered.

I went on to play in the Kat Scrappiness December Challenge; Holiday Tag. I use tags as a card gift in some of the cards I mail, so this challenge is perfect! Plus, it is always fun to make tags.
I used a bunch of Kat's products to make this fun tag. I started with the Mini Slimline Scalloped Edge Die for my tag base. For the inner panel, I used the Mini Slimline Embossed Edge Die [and embossed that with a snowflake embossing folder].
Then the fun started! I used the Stitched & Layered Christmas Tree, the wine glass [and wine] from Wine Not Dies, and finally, the Merry from the Merry Christmas Die. (I am so in love with the font of this die!) Last step was punching a hole, and adding the twine.
Standing it up, you can see the embossed snowflakes from the folder. Yep, totally happy with the end result, and I know exactly who it is going to! :)Thanks Challenges!
