Merry Monday - snowflakes, dry embossing, vintage colours
The Kraft Journal - Funky Junk
Chocolate, Coffee & Cards - Polka Dots
Supplies: patterned kraft paper from stash; Stampin' Up burlap ribbon - from DONNA!; veneer snowflake - from GLENDA!; Sew Easy tool - from CHRIS!; Pumice Stone & Black Soot distress ink; Versamark & clear detail EP; Cuttlebug embossing folder; vellum; classic small circle Nesties; sentiment from MME
The bottom piece of card stock was pre-printed with the distressed black polka dots. The tilted shiny panel was printed with light brown stars. I embossed it with a Cuttlebug folder, and then swiped the Pumice Stone ink over the raised dots. In the close up you can see a few spots where there are black stars now on the raised dots. Cool! I sprinkled the entire piece with clear EP and heated. The sentiment was embossed with clear EP as well, inking first with Versamark & then Black Soot.
As for the 'funky junk' Kraft Journal challenge, all the pieces used were scraps. And black & kraft is a pretty funky colour combo for a Christmas card!
For Merry Monday - I went with the challenge prompt that the Merry Monday crew had LeAnne thinking they were using :)
And of course, there are lots of polka dots for Chocolate, Coffee, and Cards.

What a bonus card this is, Jessi! Bonus that you got to use your goodies from your friends and bonus that you made it work for so many challenges and bonus for us to have inspiration on how to make a card with lots of character, dimension, and texture!! Whoot! I won't be surprised if there isn't a bonus added when the challenges close = winner!! Have a great weekend! Hugs, Darnell
