Santa Mittens
It's been a great week celebrating the Memory Box 2015 Holiday release with our blog blitz. I hope you have felt inspired and sparked with creativity by the amazing techniques and variety of cards shown so far. It's Friday, my favorite day to share a card, so here's my card for you...it's Santa Mittens!
The Stitched Mittens die comes in two parts, the cuff and the conjoined mittens. I couldn't resist die cutting the cuffs from glittered felt for a little fashion flair. Cozy looking aren't they? I also snipped the loop between the mittens so I could hook them onto the Snowflake Centerpiece which was cut from shimmery silver card stock. For even more sparkle I die cut the Sketchbook Joy from red mirror paper.
I like to finish my cards on the inside too...
The Snowflake Love Pendant seemed a perfect match with the Snowflake Centerpiece on the front and making the heart red matches the mittens. Overall it's a clean and tailored card--so I added a few frills for lots of texture and shine. Irridescent sequins and gemstones had to be included, right?
This is one of the many cards I will be teaching this summer around the Mid West. I'll be teaching classes at Inspiration Station in Ovid, Michigan and Ink Paper Rubber in Overland Park, KS. Plus one more location September...to be announced soon. I would love to meet all the Mid West Memory Box fans out there!
