Photo inspired Christmas Cards

This month at Christmas Cards all year Round we have a photo challenge for you. Whatever inspires you with the photo below make a Christmas card using it. Here is the photo and the two I came up with.


This one was inspired by the great detail that each egg has matches the detail in the patterned paper. Plus the oval shaped die cuts from the oval eggs were my inspiration.

{DP by DCWV, die cuts by Spellbinders and Cricut, cardstock by Recollections and unknown, sticker by Mrs Grossman's, ribbon by American Crafts, stamp by Imaginisce and ink by Stampin Up.}


The colors in the photo inspired me to pull out this old patterned paper by Provo Craft and make this card. I have been hoarding it for years and I am finally using it. 

{DP by Provo craft, ribbon by Stampin Up and Offray, die cut by Cricut, some cardstock by Recollections and the rest is from my stash}


Challenges for the second card:
