This card measures 5ins x 5ins
Hmmmm …. I am not really sure about this card …. I wanted to try using a colour not usually associated with Christmas but I don’t think I have pulled it off.
I’ve used four cream coloured felt Christmas tree embellishments to make up the snowflake with a clear flat backed gem in the middle ….. but I’m afraid it’s destined to be returned to the drawing board ….. I was trying to be clever, but realise now that it would look much better on a blue card, with silver mat and layering.

Well, I think it was creative genius to use those little tree embellishments to form a snowflake. I know I would've never thought of that! And even though you think you need to go back to the drawing board, I'd be pleased as punch to get a pretty card like that!

ReplyDeleteLovely idea Helen. I actually like the colours but can understand the need to redesign if you don't. Still a very clever idea though.
