Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back with my weekly Christmas card for the {BYSHC} Sketch Challenge 20... and I've had another pretty busy week at home with homeschool, DT stuff and just everyday stuff so I only had a bit of time to make my Christmas card. Doodlebug Design ephemera and pretty papers to the rescue!!
For this week's card I went with more of a wintry theme with just a touch of Christmas with the candy cane and present. I chose the cute bear and squirrel ephemera and the present ephemera first from the Doodlebug Design Let it Snow Odds & End die cut (ephemera) pack. And I picked a few different sentiments from the Chit Chat die cut pack just to give me a few options for when I put the card together.
And then I started looking through my leftover pieces from the Let it Snow paper pad. I've used a lot of this paper pad, but I was still able to find a couple almost full sheets of the 6x6" papers. I trimmed my layers to fit the sketch measurements and then mat them on Green Galore card stock (another retired SU card stock... or at least as far as I know it's still retired).
I adhered all the layers together and then adhered them to a white A2 top fold card base. I adhered the little present to the bear and squirrel ephemera and then adhered a layer of card stock under the squirrel and the top of the bear's head so that the ephemera piece would lay flat on my card. I adhered the bear and squirrel to the card with Tombow Mono Multi liquid glue. I chose the 'let it snow' sentiment and popped it up on the card with foam tape. Another cute Christmas card for my stash!
