Happy Christmas
Hello crafters! I cut the Stained Glass Rectangles out of white card and I matted two consecutive sizes as the background. I cut the outer die from the Stained Glass Songbird out of green card. I cut the middle die out of both white and black, shadowed the white die cut with the black die cut and added it to the outer die. I cut the Songbird die in black to use as a base. I paper pieced all of the fall away pieces using brown, red, green and light blue card. I paper pieced the background to the songbird by glittering a piece of white card with Diamond Sprinkles then cutting it for the fall away pieces. I added the Songbird die cut all stacked together into the centre of the card. I cut the Happy Christmas sentiment from the Christmas Wordie sheets and added it above the focal element. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
