Many people are now making their Christmas cards and now that I've started and have the Christmas stash handy I can't seem to stop making to use up some of the inevitable bits and pieces which get left over each time. I had a slatted rectangle already die cut and assembled so I trimmed a piece of seasonal backing paper to fit my card and added the rectangle; die cut some Christmas bells in silver card and added tiny red bows. Using some scraps of red and green card I cut holly leaves and berries, finally producing the sentiment on the computer to fit a stitched rectangle die. That's another fairly quick card for this year.
Background - Paper printed from a Buddly Crafts download
Slatted rectangle - die from Craft Addictions UK
Bells - unbranded die from last year
Tiny Bows - from a retired Stampin' Up die set (elephants)
Holly - a Joanna Sheen die set which I've had for many years
Sentiment - composed on the computer, stitched rectangle a retired SU die set
Lovely festive make xxx
ReplyDeleteVery pretty combo of papers and dies Val, love the teeny bows xx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about not being able to stop using up leftovers once you start! Also my Christmas stuff is mainly out of reach, so once it's out I make the most of it. This is such a pretty Christmas card.
