Welcome to Week Three of November’s 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge!
Hello, crafty friends, and welcome back to another creative week at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown!
I’m Gill, your host for the month of November, and I can hardly believe how quickly the weeks are flying by. The festive season is just around the corner — and if you’re like me, you’re probably adding those finishing touches to your handmade card stash! But don’t pack away your supplies just yet, because this week’s challenge is one you won’t want to miss.
November’s Theme Challenge: Winter Scene
This week, we’re stepping into the magical world of winter scenes! From snowy landscapes and frosty forests to cosy cottages and twinkling night skies, this theme is all about capturing the serene beauty of the season.
Whether you prefer a traditional look with classic Christmas colours or a modern twist with soft pastels and shimmer, there are endless ways to bring a winter scene to life. You could stamp a peaceful village beneath falling snow, build a forest of frosted evergreens with die cuts, or even try an inky blended background for that crisp, chilly feel.
Get Creative with Winter Magic
This challenge is perfect for showing off your favourite winter techniques! Maybe you’ll create dimension with layers of snowy hills, use embossing paste for textured snow, or add sparkle with a touch of glitter or metallic paint. You can keep it simple and serene, or go bold and dramatic — the choice is yours.
Think of scenes that make you feel warm and festive inside: a glowing lantern in the snow, a peaceful woodland with deer, or even a jolly snowman under a starlit sky. However you imagine winter, we want to see it on your cards!
