Hello everyone, it's time for the December Card Chain Challenge reveal and I am here to share the card I sent to Linda in MN. 

For the December challenge we were playing Tic Tac Tic Tac Toe with this fun board. I had to study the board a bit before deciding to join in as I was stumped at first but then chose the diagonal top right to bottom left line. And I think I managed really well :)

Blue (I chose a "denim" blue because I thought it was a good match for burgundy) - Bauble (they were part of the die) - Buddy (I'm sure these two birds are buddies) - Bling (some glitter on the berries) - Burgundy (berries and birds). 

The wreath was done with a Penny Black die (Bird on a wreath). I cut it out using Bristol Vellum paper and used diluted Distress inks for watercoloring. I also used Distress inks for the background. I wanted to add some golden splatter for some interest but the only golden medium I had was a golden gelato by Faber Castell, so that's what I used.  

Before adhering the wreath I used Penny Black's Christmas Story background stamp on the very bottom portion. "Hope", "Peace" and "Love" are from the Penny Black set Holiday Snippets and the "let heaven and nature sing" is from the set "Nature Sings".
