I designed a card for today that will most likely be the one that I use to send a Winter Solstice message or greetings from Maine this holiday season. As I write this post, this card very much looks like the view from my window--a dark evening sky, silhouettes of bare trees among the pines, and a few scattered snow flurries.
- This is a card of many layers. I started with a white A2 notecard and covered the front with a brown/blue plaid from WOODSY PLAID PP1018.
- For the next layer I added the BIRCH TREE TRUNKS 94701 cut from a light brown Woodsy Plaid paper.
- The third layer is the PINE NEEDLE FRAME 9487 which I cut in a dark green plaid paper from the JOLLY CHRISTMAS PP1019 paper pad.
- The final addition is the center of the GLORIETTE SNOWFLAKE COLLAGE 94696 cut from white cardstock.
Because I plan to make a bunch of these cards I will set up an assembly line process, die cutting multiples for each step. If everything goes according to plan they'll be ready to be sent out in time to celebrate the Winter Solstice. If not--they'll be Happy New Year greetings!
Happy Crafting!
