We had some fabulous entries for the Time challenge, I don't envy Suzanne having to choose her top three.
The wonderful Rare Bird are the sponsors for the challenge.
I started my card by colouring the edges of my card blank with holly berries Distress ink and adhering some Gecko Galz background paper. I embossed the holly branch with a Cuttlebug embossing folder, I coloured it with iced spruce and bundled sage Distress ink. For the holly I used a Sizzix/Alterations Holly Branch die and coloured the pieces with Distress ink, I then added some frosted lace Stickles. I die cut the sentiment with the Sizzex/Alterations Christmas Stacked Words die and coloured it with holly berries Distress ink and the stickles. I embellished it with some ribbon.
The rest of the design team have made some wonderful samples so why not take a trip to the Craft-Room to take a look.
I'm entering my card into the following challenges.
