I'm still on a mission to use up oddments and snippets - as well as making more Christmas cards so I don't have a last minute rush later in the year. This card uses an image from a Christmas card I received last year as well as a snippet of paper from a charity shop bag of oddments.
To make this card I used:
C6 white matt card blank
Upcycled Christmas card
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Oval STAX Die-namics' die`
Snippets of green and gold paper and white paper
I die cut the image from the front of the Christmas card and set it aside. I attached the snippet of patterned paper to the white paper to make it the same thickness as the die cut image, before trimming it so it was slightly smaller than the card blank. I die cut an oval from the centre of the paper before attaching it to the front of the card blank. To finish I inlaid the the dog image.
I am entering the following challenges:
Krafty Chicks Challenge - Christmas
Merry Little Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
Sparkles Christmas Challenge - Christmas Critters
