Jingle Belles Christmas Card Challenge Week 3




This week's challenge is to use acrylic paint. I used Silver acrylic paint on the edges of my cards in place of ink :) I had so much fun making the 1st card that I decided to keep going and made 2 more! The snowflake card (made with my Cricut and SCAL2 Software) doesn't count towards the challenge since I didn't incorporate paint onto it, but it does count towards my end of year count :) If you haven't joined in yet over at Jingle Belles , by all means click this link, or this one and start right now :)


Thanks for looking and have a fantastic day!!

    I love all of these! If *I* tried this, it would look like a MESS. YOURS, however looks like you meant to do that. Sigh.

    Your cards are beautiful - I think the silver paint adds a subtle, but marvelous, shimmer to the card. Your others are incredibly pretty - you put a lot of effort into them and it shows quite beautifully.
