Another Christmas card for my pile ready for December this year. The design was from a sketch over in the Creative Minds - Kind Hearts Facebook page.
The patterned papers were snippets from a paper pad from The Works. The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up '#Elfie' set, stamped in navy blue. Three tiny blue pearls finished off my card.
I am joining in the following challenges with this card.
My second card is a Never-ending card.
The patterned paper is from a paper pad from The Range.
The small sunflowers were made with punched and I use a Cheery Lynn 'Sunflower' die for the large sunflower. I added a plain panel for the message.
Here is a little video showing how the card opens. You may need to click on it twice to open it.

A great layout sketch to show off those lovely papers on your first card and the never-ending one is clever and in nice bright colours.
ReplyDeleteI love the red, white and blue Christmas card so much. The papers are a lovely match with each other and the design is so pretty. Whoa, never ending is right. That is just awesome. I'm not sure I could fold it back up again.
ReplyDeleteNo need to fold it back up, Brenda. It just keeps on opening. 😉

You have created a beautiful Christmas card, I love the combination of blue and red. The sentiment is so fitting for the season, and I admire your plan to create a pile of cards before the actual holidays. I'm sure it will make the Christmas preparations less stressful. I like your idea of using snippets for your project, and the use of different papers gives a wonderful effect. Thanks for joining the Alphabet challenge.
