Hello friends
So if I was very very organised and had an eight day week this
is the Christmas card that I would be making for everyone this year.
It is my perfect recipe for simple, elegant and batch making.
It features the gorgeous Create A Flake Six and 6 x 6 Matting Basics.
Create your card base with the Matting Basics and attach a square of
patterned festive paper - raid your scrap box for this.
Next, onto your cutting plate place white card, matching size Matting Basics
die and largest snowflake inside. Cut to create your aperture.
Attach to card front with 3D Foam Squares.
Using the the largest snowflake die cut offset and attach and
apply the smallest snowflake to the middle.
You may be able to see from the photo that I've embossed just the flap of
the envelope - again something I like to do for that special touch.
I used Santa's Sleigh embossing folder - that boy of mine has it
so cheap on the website!
Every year I am thrilled to see the next Create A Flake die
but I'm truly taken with this year's design.
I think it is because that smallest snowflake can easily be a
flower too....
Create A Flake Six is available on the website here.
Take care friends - I hope you're keeping warm!
Morning Christine.

Hi Christine
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely card, I think you should get Elliott and Mitchell to make your Christmas cards this year, using that design.

Both gorgeous cards Christine. The second one was admired by a few of us at your demo on Saturday.
ReplyDeleteThe idea is great and could be easily adapted using other dies. Thank you for the inspiration!
