Merry Christmas
Hello crafters! I still have a lot of Christmas cards from last year to share with you, but I promise I will share some of this year's samples with you next week. I started todays sample by cutting a piece of white card and I scored it across the card with my score board. Next I used the Floating Bubbles stencil on a piece of blue card and used Periwinkle Sparkle Texture paste through the stencil. Once dry, I cut it into two pieces and added the larger one at the bottom of the card and the other one at the top of the card. I cut thin strips of silver mirror card and glued them across the join area. Using Jamie's Christmas Kaleidoscope die, I cut three of them out of periwinkle card and backed them with silver mirror card. I added all three to the middle of the card with mounting foam. I cut the Merry Christmas die out of white and silver mirror card, then shadowed it with the silver card and glued the words to the top and bottom of the card. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x
