Rudolph Day has come round again, where has the first four months of this year gone! This is my CAS Christmas card for the April Challenge.
The snowflake aperture die is a preloved one I bought recently, which I think is a Clarity die. The person who sold it to me said it belonged to her late mother-in-law and was glad it was going to a good home, so I didn't want it to sit in my NBUS pile for long. I die cut the snowflake into a snippet of white card and cut into a square with a Memory Box 'Stitched Squares Layers' die and a blue mat from the same set. I used a SU sentiment, stamped with Versafine 'Paradise'.
I am joining in the following challenges with this card:
I made a similar card in black and white, using a different sentiment. As these were fairly quick to make, I think I will batch make a few of these in different colours, using up snippets of white and coloured card.
