Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
purpose: This post celebrates My Time To Craft Christmas Challenge Blog's #100 theme competition. It was my turn to suggest the topic and decided to have celebratory red and silver color combo Christmas/winter holiday cards.
when: #100 starts November 22, 2024 and ends December 5, 2024.
what: Red and Silver Christmas Sweet Treats card =
1. red cardstock slimline format = old Pen + Gear
2. gray cardstock = old Neenah
3. candy cane punched circle cardstock = Bella Blvd.
4. white painted wood (almost looks like birch) paper = Hot Off The Press
5. gingerbread note pad sheet = very old stash item
6. black ink pad = Hero Arts
7. peppermint candies stickers and silver snowflake stickers are from separate packages = Hallmark
8. clear iridescent gems= stash
9. foam dots support the gray panel for some dimension

Note: I own FQHSKCB and FQGGCB which are food content related challenge blogs. For FarmQuest HomeStyle Kitchen think of it as anything food goes or even as anything kitchen goes. Dinnerware, glassware, recipes, aprons, spatulas, measuring cups, candy, cookies, cocoa, etc. are welcomed there anytime. For FarmQuest Grocery Game Challenges think of it like a very popular Food Network cable TV show. There are 2 types of game challenges every 30-31 days with one based on store aisles of contents and the other based on alphabet foods such as H for honey, ham, hickory-smoked steak, hickory nuts, hazelnuts, etc. With the gingerbread cookie, candy canes, and peppermint swirl candies, if I didn't own FQHSKCB, I could link up. If FQGGCB was having C (candy canes) or G (gingerbread) or P (peppermints) alphabet letter foods, I could link up this card. OR if it was an odd aisle #7 which contains candy, nuts, and baking ingredients, I could share this card.
