I made this card for the AAA Cards 'Sketch' challenge using some small parcels I had stitched onto perforated paper.
To make this card I used:
5.5" x 4.25" white matt card blank
Catkin and Lillie 'Mini Presents' cross stitch pattern
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
Clearly Besotted 'Cheerful Christmas' stamps
Versafine Onyx Black ink
Oddments of DMC threads
Snippet of white matt card and perforated paper
I stitched the three small parcels onto snippets of perforated paper and fussy cut around the edges before setting them aside. I die cut a stitched rectangle from a snippet of white card and placed it into my MISTI. I laid the parcels onto the panel to see where to position the sentiment stamp. I removed the parcels and stamped the sentiment with black ink. The panel was then attached to the front of the card blank with the parcels attached above the sentiment.
I am entering the following challenges:
AAA Cards - Sketch Challenge
Allsorts - Christmas
Daisy Chain Challenge - Christmas and/or Winter
Merry Little Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
