Background Builders: Christmas Day 2

Hey!

Did you enjoy the Design Team Blog Hop yesterday? I sure did, SO many FABulous ideas & so much inspiration. If you missed it you can catch up on it HERE. 

So, as I said yesterday, I haven't shown much love to Background Builders: Christmas so I am spending the week showing it some love! Todays card is a little out of my comfort zone and normal go to style...




I'm not 100% sure I like it as there is not as much 'white' space as I usually have on my projects, but it is good to step out of the zone now & then. 

For this card I was inspired by Nicki's card HERE which she shared a few weeks ago.  I just loved the text stamped background and wanted to give it a go. I am also inspired by Stacey's cards with the  use of layers, textures and ribbons like in this card HERE. So I kind of combined the two and this was the result!




That's all from me today using the set, but I will be back tomorrow with more to share. Until then, thank you for stopping by today :)

Be sure to pop on over to Uniko Studio's November Guest Designers Blog N@Ali HERE today and everyday this week as N@Ali is sharing a week of Uniko Studio inspiration using all the October Release products.

    Your card is a wonderful "fusion" of Nicki and Stacey's styles, paired with Bev "magic", resulting in a card that is absolutely stunning! Hearts, snowflakes, a heart-warming sentiment: eye-catching combination. Your step out of your comfort zone is a full on success!! LOVE it!!

    Think it turned out great! Am really loving the pale blue mixed with more traditional Christmas colours I'm seeing everywhere, so your colour combo is so 'on trend'!
