Good morning, it's time for a new challenge at Fab 'n' Funky.
Our lovely host for this fortnight is Pat, her chosen theme is
CHRISTMAS IN JULY.
It was so hot I went with a frosty look!
A gelli plate background in cool blues, I die cut the word 'snow' using my old Cricut machine and used the negative and an embossing pen to stencil the word 3 times onto the panel, then heat embossed using white EP. I stamped and embossed the snowflakes around the edge and stamped the 'Chill out' sentiment a few times. Two die cut snowflakes and a cute A & C snowman added to finish.
This will be our last challenge before we break for the summer so I do hope you'll find the time to join in.
Thanks for visiting
Chris

Your frosty design absolutely captures the chill of a snowy day—what a brilliant contrast to the summer heat! The gelli plate background in those icy blues is stunning, and I love how you used the negative space from the die-cut to stencil the word “snow”—such a creative twist. That cheerful snowman steals the show with his quirky charm and fits so perfectly with the playful vibe. A wonderfully cool take on Christmas in July!
ReplyDeleteHi Chris at the moment I wish it was Winter it beats this unbearable heat, I am so enjoying seeing these wonderful festive makes and this one is yet another little cutie great background shows the little snowman up perfectly
