Morning everyone!

For this month's design element we're focusing on one of my favourite design techniques, especially for Christmas cards (entering panic phase now).

We are setting the scene on our cards


It doesn't just have to be something wintry, there are plenty of ways you can set the scene, and not just for landscapes. You can include character images, animals, balloon backgrounds, clouds, rainbows, seaside themes, underwater scenes, birds on a tree branch - there are basically endless creative possibilities.

I've shared one of my go-to wintry scenes over on my blog here.

The full instructions and details for this year's challenge can be found here in the January post.

And past prompts are all listed under the tag 2018 card challenge on my blog.

Also for those of you on Instagram, I'll be using the hashtag #2018handmadecardchallenge to share my projects there, so feel free to use this tag on Instagram as well!

Enjoy!
