Happy Christmas


My quest to make 15 Christmas cards a month has already fallen short after one month into the year...but hey...I have 7 made so far...which is better than none.  My card today is inspired again by the Online Card Class. The video talked about adding texture to a card by adding die cuts to create the appearance of a die cut background.  Love how this technique adds a touch of depth to the card.  It's not my favorite card, but I'll take it!

I hope you have a fabulous weekend...we're off for a show choir weekend in Indiana!

I am cutting you a little slack on the goal, maybe you'll find some super simple design later this year and make 25 of 'em, no one ever said they all had to be different?

You are doing better than me, I have made one!! I really like the diagonal slant, it gives a funky look AMD this reminds me I must buy some holly dies. Have a good weekend, we are off to the movies and you have fun at the shows x

This is one of the few techniques I had time to try for the class. You did a great job with it, Lynn.
