Whimsie Doodles has THE cutest little circle images for Christmas and I just had to have 'em. I had a plan in place and used 'em right away - no procrastinating, that just may be my Christmas miracle. I made quite a few cards with the images, 21 to be exact...
To create the cards I kept to a simple design and changed up the band with either sewing, ribbon or embossing.
Creating a set is one easy way to use up patterened paper, which fits in perfectly with
Wee Memories "Dust off that patterned paper challenge". I did not finish the whole mini pad, but there is not much left!
Since this is a gift for someone, ease in mailing was numero uno. The only card that I allowed buttons on was the card for the recipient. Plus, the
Whimsie Doodle challenge this week is buttons, so I had to include a few.
In addition to the Nestie label 1 mat, there is also some yellow on that card which meets the challenge for
Your Next Stamp this week to use 2 of the following: yellow, nesties or stickles. Well, I did not use stickles, but I have the first two.
I went with glossy accents on the candy cane and the snowman's nose to add a little fun. This card is for a guy, so I did not want to make it too glitzy!
Smiles,
Julie
