Hello-
I love stalking the Stampin Up sales. I picked up some lovely flocked vellum 12X12 sheets for a steal of a price. They will be perfect for Christmas cards. This one is particularly for CAS Christmas Card Challenge.
I cut a 2.5 inch strip of the vellum, turned it over colored in the berries. Next I adhered it to a very light gray card base so the flocking stands out and added a red glitter tape border. A small sentiment and this very quick clean and simple card is done.
Thanks so much for visiting.
Such delicious simplicity, Cat ... and such wonderful impact ... what a lovely, shimmery, celebratory Christmas card! I'm imagining the flocky texture of that vellum ... yum! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteAlways good to get a bargain Cat. What a wonderful CAS card. I love the flock vellum and the red bling strip sets it off perfectly, along with the light grey cardstock.
