Phew! Made it to December. It's been quite the interesting year, eh? Last year at this time, I would have thought the pandemic would be over but oh no, we're still in the middle of it. Anyway, being an introvert, I'm enjoying all the quiet time at home at my craft table. I guess, I just wish I could travel. 

Talking about crafting, we have a new challenge at STAMPlorations CAS. This month, the challenge will be

Here's my card

 

This card was a bit of an experiment to do the optional color twist - to use metallics and a color (black) and I think that it turned out fine. I started with STAMPlorations ARTplorations Christmas Trees stencil and a black A2 card panel. I smeared on Tombow Mono Multi Glue through the stencil with my finger. I removed the stencil and quickly washed off the glue. I then covered the tacky glue area with Cosmic Shimmer Gilding Flakes - Egyptian Gold. I covered the panel with copy paper to help to burnish the gilding flakes. For the sentiment, I heat embossed using STAMPlorations Christmas Bell Medley stamp set and silver embossing powder. I attached the black panel to a white A2 card panel to complete the card.
