AAA Cards #255 – Sketch and Cold

Hello there, it’s time for another challenge over at AAA Cards and do we have a great theme for you! This is our last challenge for 2023 so it will run for longer than usual.

I seem to be on a role with making cards with no stamping on them lately. For this card I used a Christmas light die which I die cut from 3 different blue glitter papers. The sentiment is die cut from black cardstock.
