Rejoice In The Season
Hello crafters! I started ths card with a piece of milk card for my background. Next I used the small scalloped border off of the Scalloped Snowflake Border die set. I cut six of them out of gold card and six out of red card. I glued them to the edges of the card overlapping the border by crisscrossing the opposite colour. For the focal element, I cut a multi-layered frame using the Round Corner Squares out of milk card and I added a thin red frame cut with the same dies on top. I cut the Rejoice the Season in gold and glued it to the centre of the frame. I seated the frame in a diamond orientation in between the side borders. Using The Poinsettia Trio, I cut three red poinettias and added green leaves as accents around them. The card was completed with milk and red mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8 1/2" x 9 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
