In my craft room I'm still humming along on the Christmas card theme.
The Make It Monday Challenge hosted by Laurie at Papertrey Ink featured tips for using lots of layers. I got a bit carried away but had fun adding colors of ink and die cut layers. Have a look!
I combined die cut images from Holiday Greens and Spruce and Sprigs. They were stamped multiple times using shades of Parakeet Green, New Leaf and Hawaiian Shores. I just love these colors!
I cut an ornate square and a circle die from the Don't Forget to Write Basics Collection, and used those as bases for tucking in and layering my bouquet of holly and blooms. The stamped and die cut sentiments are from the Christmas Cheer stamp set.
This card will make it's way to someone special on my list, either delivered by hand or in a specially made envelope.
You are so special too, hope your day is wonderful!
