This week's Oh HOLE-y Night theme at Jingle Belles (suggested by our oh-so-talented lovely guest star Ros Crawford) is celebrating aperture cards. I decided to keep my design pretty straight forward, since I need some masculine cards in my stash (and because every time I tried to add ribbon or embellishments, they covered up the sweet little snow people faces from Crate's Snow Day Collection).
My CatsLife Press sentiment was stamped in Chestnut Roan Chalk ink and punched out. I attached it to the inside of my card with foam tape, so it pops out a bit through the opening.
I layered a thin circle & scalloped frame on the card front to frame the sentiment and added a tiny bit of sponging (which helps cover up the little white bits that can show when you punch designer paper) … and bit of sponging on the edges & a red gem for my snowflake and it was done.
Beautiful card as always Stef … thanks so much for having me join you this week
cute, cute, cute!!!!!! Love the new challenge!
Totally adorable, Stef! And I just love LOVE that snowman CP paper, I used all mine already, **sigh** Great stamping, love the new challenge, & thanks for popping by my blog:)
What a great idea! Love this – I just might have to CASE it this holiday season (since I have one of those Cat’s Life stamps, too!). Always get such great ideas from you, Stef – thanks for the inspiration!
this was such a great challenge and your card is adorable. I will have to try this myself now – I think I tried too hard! Thanks for the inspiration.
