I made this card using the colours of the AAA Cards Challenge - black and gold aren't colours I would normally use for a Christmas card but I was pleased with the finished card.
To make this card I used:
C6 white matt card blank
Creative Expressions 'Festive Collection - Joy' & My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' dies
Snippets of white and black matt card and gold mirri card
I trimmed a piece of white matt card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and then used the largest rectangle die to cut it into a stitched shape. As the die wasn't long enough to cut the panel I cut the first half, then moved the die to cut the lower part of the panel. I then cut JOY from the centre of the panel before attaching it to the card. I die cut JOY from black matt card and inlaid the letters into the panel, together with the middle of the O that had been cut from white card. I die cut the fancy JOY from gold mirri and attach it to the card.
I am entering the following challenges:
AAA Cards Challenge - Black, White and Gold
CAS on Friday - Christmas
Daisy Chain Challenge - Christmas/Winter
Less is More - D is for Deck the Halls
