Merry Monday Christmas Challenge #127

It is Monday once again and time for a new Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge.
This week Kathy is our hostess and her challenge is to Choose three boxes, up/down or diagonally.



Although I think I tried to fit this card in to many of this choices as I could I went straight across the middle with Die cut, Ribbon or Twine and Kraft. I also tried for a simple layout that could be popped in the mail without  extra postage.

I heat embossed the sentiment then layered it and popped it up with foam tape. I used twine to divide the upper and lower segments of the card. I think I should have added some pearls or sequins and I still might but I am leaving it CAS for now.


Supplies: Kraft and brown card stock, Designer Paper –Fancy Pants , Papertrey Ink– Signature Christmas, Inspired by Stamping - die cut, twine.

Don’t forget to stop by the Merry Monday blog to see the Design Team’s creations, leave the ladies a little comment love along the way.

Thank you for stopping by.
Nina

    Hi Nina,

    With the choices for three boxes up or down it feels like card-sketch bingo.
    You nailed it!

    Personally I don't believe you did need the pearls, this is so well-balanced just the way it is.
