As I've been finding it difficult getting back into the crafting groove of late I thought I'd give myself a challenge that might just flick the switch again! That was to try the layering technique I normally use on photos when creating a scrap page on the LOTV Cute Square for this card. I think it worked quite well. All the papers are from Kaisercraft Christmas Collections 6" paper pad ... it's an old one so I'm not sure it's still available. I cut the scalloped edge and berry printed strip from one of the sheets of patterned paper to add a bit of decoration to the layout. The greeting and the holly embellishments were die-cut from snippets of red and green cardstock using Tattered Lace mini dies.
Off-cuts of the patterned paper were used to decorate the inside and back.
Having used a couple of teeny tiny snippets of red and green cardstock I'm submitting this to Pixie's Snippets Playground - Week 169 too.
And as it was the first outing for those Tattered Lace Mini Dies I'm submitting it to Darnell's NBUS challenge #4
I think this little exercise might have revived my crafting groove ... just :)
Wishing you all a lovely day.
Happy Crafting,
How lovely Elizabeth, A really gorgeous festive card

Hi Elizabeth! I hope I didn't refer to you as Veerle in my comment just posted, please delete if I did,am trying to catch up with the Playground. Needless to say I adore your card and Parsnip is sitting here wishing he was one of those bears :) Err, preferably not the snowman - although I think that's the closest!!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card - the layers have worked so well. I'm afraid that when I try layering on cards they just look a mess!
