I am playing catch up with my commitment to make Christmas cards monthly this year. I am using large and odd sized envelopes from my stash in an effort to make them disappear!! I chose the envelope and made a dark maroon card to fit in it. I had the ornament and greeting picked out from my January session of Christmas cards when I made
these. I went digging into my stash to find a background that would work and found this one which I printed a while back when I was working on
these cards. It is a digital collage which I colour printed onto a page from a bible. It worked with the sky of my little round image so I went with it. I trimmed it to size and adhered to my card front. I tied cording to the top of my ornament die cut and adhered my little circle image after sponging it around the edge a bit with brown ink. The image was die cut from a Christmas card I received years ago and was a supply for a different project a while back. I mounted the ornament to my card front using 3D foam tape and adhered the cording to the inside of my card using double sided tape. The greeting (Quietfire Designs) was stamped onto ivory, punched out and then layered onto a coordinating scalloped oval punchie (SU). I layered them and then mounted it to the front of my card with 3D foam tape as well. I love how bright the image is compared to the background - it really stands out!! Another one down!! Therese
