Hello! It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. It’s a really fun sketch this week that you need to try!
MERRIEST MOMENTS
I think it is funny that after I completed this card, I looked back at another card I had done a couple weeks ago using this set and they are VERY similar! I must like this look!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Pear Pizzazz cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 1-3/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Paper was added to the bottom.
- The 5/8 x 4-1/4 strip of Real Red cardstock was placed towards the top in the center.
- The 3-1/2 x 3-3/4 piece of Basic White was cut with the pointed Basic Borders Die. It was stamped with the greeting from Merriest Moments in Mossy Meadow Ink.
- The large and small poinsettias were stamped with Real Red and the larger one again in Mossy Meadow Ink. They were cut with the Merriest Frames Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of Gold Gilded Gems were added to the center for a little sparkle!
Isn’t that SO pretty! I love that pointed layer! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this color combination over on Create with Connie and Mary!
