Christmas Cuties

The current challenge at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown is 'Little Christmas Critters' and I've used a cute Lili of the Valley pre-coloured topper for my card.  I'm also entering Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge 'Cute', Sparkles Christmas Challenges 'Christmas Cuties' and Christmas Card Challenges where 'Anything Goes'.


Card blank: 6" x 6" white linen
Image: Lili of the Valley 'Christmas Cuties'
Card: Silver mirri
Paper: Lili of the Valley 'Festive Trimmings'
Other: Silver nailheads, Wink of Stells

I trimmed green paper, layered it onto silver mirri and attached it to the card front.  I cut a strip of red paper and attached it down the centre of the card ensuring the words matched.  The topper was layered onto silver mirri and attached to the card with foam tape.  To finish I added silver nailheads to the corners and highlighed the image with a Wink of Stella.
