Putting the patchwork of a a patchwork card together was a little more fiddly than I first anticipated, but I got it together in the end. I arranged and glued scrap pieces of Christmas patterned paper onto a square of white card, measuring approximately 4.5ins x 4.5ins and then layered that on a hologram type mirror card, before finally positioning it onto the card blank.
I originally added a silver Craftwork Cards sentiment to the plain and scalloped circle layered backing (using various sized punches), but when I looked at it, it just didn’t look right, so I replaced it with a gold one, which looked much better, especially against the yellow/gold flat backed gems etc.

Super use of all those scraps though it took longer than you intended. I hope Nigel didn't have the glue pot.! Hugs Mrs A.
Great idea for using up all those Christmas DSP scraps. Lord knows, I've got a lot of them! Thanks for sharing this.
