May Your Days be Merry & Bright

Hello there my crafty friends!  I selected a piece of pixied card from my background stash pile.  I used Midnight Blue and Purple Violet Pixie Powders on it then used a paint brush and blended the colours together.  I cut the Moonlight Sleigh Cover Plate out of black card.  I added custard card behind the windows in all the buildings.  I glued the Cover Plate die to the pixied background.  I cut the die a second time out of white card and nipped away the Santa, sleigh and reindeer and glued them on top of the black die cut.  I matted it with white and black mats, then added it to a larger piece of white card.  I cut the May Your Days Be Merry & Bright sentiment in black ,then added it to a white shadow backing die.  I added mounting foam to the back then attached it below the Cover Plate die.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 8"  x  8 1/4"  in size.  


All for now, Sue x

Lovely card again today Sue. Trying to get my act together and make some Christmas cards but like most crafters keep going off at tangents and not achieving much. WakeyL
