I simply couldn’t decide what set to start with in this amazing release – so I went for little bit of different sets. 

I used the small images from the Oh Penguin Tree and Let It Snow to create my own patterned paper which I colored in using my copics. 
Then I cut my “patterned paper” into strips using different widths from the Quick Stripes dies.

Instead of large cards, I decided to make these 3×3 inches, so I cut my papers to 6×3 inches and folded them in half to make my card bases. Then I added the strips of paper to the bottom half of each card. 

To decorate the card I cut the leaves from Foliage Frame in gold and woodgrain vellum. For the flower I used the same woodgrain vellum, gold, white cardstock and a bit of green for the leaves. Finally I stamped sentiments from Holiday Messages on some white Quick Stripes diecuts and cut them to length before adding them with some foam squares.

  3. So sweet, I never think of making a 3X3 card. Not familiar with woodgrain vellum, I just love the airy look of vellum. So unique and pretty. Happy 8th to MaMa Elephant!
