Christmas Greetings
Hello there my crafty friends! This is one of my personal favourite cards from the first Christmas release. I started with a piece of Blue Dusk card. I cut two of the Scalloped Snowflake Borders in white. I glued them to the top and bottom of the blue dusk card. I used the thin scalloped die in the set and added one on the top and one on the bottom of the Scalloped Snowflake Borders. I cut the Clipped Corner Rectangles in white and made a thin frame. I added it with mounting foam over the Scalloped Snowflake borders and nipped away the excess card in the corners. I cut the Christmas Greetings sentiment in blue dusk, shadowed it in black and glued it to the shadow backing die cut in white. I added it with mounting foam to the centre of the card. The card was completed with white and blue dusk mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
