This is a fun birthday collage card for my brother (who is an amazing large scale collage artist) that I made with all sorts of bits and bobs from my stash.

The next prompt at Jingle Belles is We THREE Kings – to create a card that features three of something … it might be three circles, three snowflakes, three presents under the Christmas Tree … you get the picture.

It’s still a Fa-La-La-La-La prompt at Jingle Belles … creating cards inspired by or including Christmas Carols. I flipped over the vintage sheet music from last week’s card and scanned the other side. This time I cut it into a square to use with the BYSH Cardmakers Sketch. I paired it with green plaid paper … Read more
