Patchwork Christmas


Good Morning
The weekends seem to fly by and at this time of the year, there is less time to create.
That being said, I really wanted to try a technique featured over at Splitcoast Stampers called
Super simple to do and a great way to use up some of you paper scraps.
I chose some holiday themed paper in red and green for my card.

So here's what I did to create my card.
  • I began by looking through my dp's until I found some papers that I liked.  
  • Following the tutorial on SCS, I cut my paper into 1" squares and then glued my papers onto a piece of white cardstock that was 3 x 3.
  • I cut them as per the instructions and glued them onto another piece of cardstock.
  • Using a postage die, I cut a piece of white cardstock and glued that onto a card panel that was 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 square.  
  • I glued a piece of red cardstock over that, then pop dotted the patches onto the red.
  • I die cut the 'Merry' from some white and some red, glued them together off setting them a bit and then glued them over the patches.
  • I stamped the sentiment strip and pop dotted that over the die cut.


Adding my card to these challenges:
