Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
purpose/why: this posting shares my newest DT project for My Time To Craft Christmas (MTTCC) challenge blog; the #101 theme was suggested by another crew member
when: #101 starts December 6, 2024 and lasts 13 days
what: light theme for Christmas/winter holiday cards can be any source of light ===> lamps, lanterns, candles, fireplaces/fires, strings of lights, etc. I chose candles.
notes:
1. sheet music second half of the verses as sentiment tag = "The Light of the World is Jesus" hymn; page 267 in Rejoice Hymns by Majesty Music, Inc. circa 2011
2. green cardstock scraps = lighter tone for shaped card base = Neenah and the darker grass green tone for sentiment tag = Pen + Gear
3. sheet music outlined with = "Condensed Milk" alcohol marker by Arteza and filled in with a honey brown colored pencil (stash)
4. candles and pinecones digital = Blessed Crafters Freebie download = must be a group member to have access to the freebies
5. silver and white foil snowflakes stickers = Hallmark
6. digital image colored with a variety of markers = stash
7. red cardstock scrap = Pen + Gear
8. paper and cardstock edges inked in brown = Lawn Fawn

note: on January 2, 2025 Heart's Quest for Shaped Cards and Tags challenge blog will begin. My stair-step looking shaped card and fish-tail banner/tag with the sentiment would both be appropriate for HQFSCAT. The only shape not allowed is standard straight line/sharp corner rectangles.
