Title: Christmas All Year 2018 - February
Post by: Iring on February 05, 2018, 11:39:22 AM

Wood Grain

This year I made myself a list of potential prompts in January, so I wouldn't be stumped each month trying to come up with something.
Wood grain was on that list, and since many of us will have some hand made wood grain backgrounds from April's "Wooden You" Winterfest challenge ... lets use them in Christmas cards!  I'm excited to see what you create.

You can use any wood grain: stamped, embossed, printed paper, hand made, actual thin wood paper or wood tape.

As always, the prompt is optional.
Please post any of your Christmas cards made in February in the Christmas All Year 2018 gallery album (or to Winterfest if it's for April's challenge).  Link them up here!

I worked on Christmas stamping some today, but didn’t finish anything.  Hopefully getting those supplies out will help inspire me to get some cards made.

This promp does help.  Last year I made a number centers for my cards, but didn’t finish them.  I ran out of month and set them aside.  But went it was time to make the cards, I just trimmed them and finished them, very easy!  Really helped get them done.
