Christmas isn't very far off so I've been making a few cards. I used to make 30 or more of the same design but that got boring so now I make one to three of each design and make many different designs.
I receive Cardmaker magazine and I like to look through to see how many cards I can duplicate or case using my Silhouette Ecutter and Stampin' Up! products.
I took elements from the cards on page 15 and 16 put them together with some Glimmer paper from Stampin' Up! and made 5 different cards.
This was the first one. The Blue is just background the base is Whisper White layered with Gold Glimmer Paper. The banner is cut from Bazzil Textured White cardstock. The bow is Red Glimmer Paper and the three Joy's are Dazzling Diamonds, Silver and Champagne Glimmer Paper.
Images are: 1. Jingle Bell by Silhouette 4655 2. 3d bow with overlay by Jennifer Wambach 35581 and font Alor.
Next up:
Base card is Whisper White, words are Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper layered on a background of Gold. I cut out some tiny stars and added them around the Four Frames shape and the black background behind the nativity really sets it apart.
