Altenew November Inspiration Challenge



Welcome here to my entry for the Altenew November Inspiration Challenge


It was so much playing with the Nordic Wonderland Craft Your Life Kit and Fresh Dye Inks!

I stamped the image in Jet Black ink and colored with the coordinating stencil and Tickled Pink, Ride the Wave and Be Grapeful Fresh Dye Inks. I then embossed with the kit embossing folder and added Stickles, a black glaze gel pen and some Studio Katia clear drops.

Thanks for taking a look!
