Hey there! Today is one of my favourites days of the year – the launch of the Avery Elle Fall release! I love all things Fall and Christmas so look forward to the new sets every year. This year is one of the best yet and I’m excited to share one of the sets I designed – Alpine Christmas. I actually drew this set (and the other one, Holiday Skates) back in January on a ski trip in Andorra! I saw old vintage sleds and skis decorating many of the shops and restaurants in the town and so was totally inspired!
I drew the sled and kept the woodgrain pattern as an option so you could colour it solidly or give it the aged wooden appearance – I find stamping the sled first and then lining up the woodgrain pattern over it is the best way to do it. For both these cards I stamped the sled and wood pattern then added colour using Copics. On all three of my cards I’ve used some of the new papers from the brand new Holiday Paper Pad – I’m in LOVE with it. The sentiment on this first one is from the new Ephemera pack too – swoon!
My last card features the vintage wooden skis and I used some of the sentiments from the new Seasonal Sentiments set – so incredibly useful to have in your collection!!
