Happy Friday!!! It's time for a new challenge from the Cut It Up Challenge Blog. This week, the challenge is: Use more than one die cut.
Here is my card for your inspiration:
As always, I was looking to create a quick card (I just can't seem to get myself together enough to have time to actually spend creating!) and this one fit the bill. I looked through my stash of new(ish) dies and stamps that is sitting on my desk and found this gorgeous snowflake frame die from Lawn Fawn and knew I definitely wanted to use it. As I went to my other desk to use my die cutting machine, I saw this commercially produced Christmas card front in one of my other stashes and knew it would be perfect to go behind my snowflake frame and it was! Then I die cut "Christmas" out of gold mat card stock and "merry" out of black card stock (twice, so I could stack them together for a bit more dimension) and glued everything in place. Quick, easy, and quite stunning in real life, I think. I didn't add any embellishments as I thought there was enough going on without them. In hindsight, I wish I had placed a layer of vellum over the background picture so the greeting would stand out a bit better, but I didn't, so . . . this is what I ended up with.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you will hop over to the
Cut It Up blog for the full details of the challenge and to see what the rest of the Design Team has created.
