Take me to Church

The current Merry Monday challenge is 'Take me to Church' and, once again, it was my upcyling box that saved the day with an image for me to use.  I'm also entering the ABC Christmas Challenge 'F is for Frills or No Frills' (I've obviously gone for the No Frills option again) and the Christmas Card Challenges 'Anything Goes' option.


Card blank: 7" x 5" white silk
Card: Gold mirri, red hammer
Other: Christmas scene (from my upcyling box), gold peel off

The lovely image was already highlighted in gold, so I trimmed it slightly before layering it onto gold mirri and red hammer card.  This was then attached to the card front.  To finish I added a Christmas peel off to the lower corner. Why are the quick and simple cards often my favourites?
