Layered Background Christmas card

I cut the sentiment and background with my the Cricut. The word holiday is a die from Scrapbooking Made Simple. I put the sentiment on vellum so I wouldn’t cover up the background  amt and had to do something with it. The sentiment fit perfectly. I put a white border around the edge and this card is  done. Thanks for looking.!

Manly Monday Desert Card

This was my Craft Roulette 296 card last week. I love how it turned out. The background was in the bin that I like to call, the
"I don’t know what to do with this background" . 

It almost got cut up into sentiment. But I’m glad it didn’t.

The background stamp is by Hero Arts and is heat embossed in silver. It was inked with two different colors of distress ink, which you can see how the top is one color is different from the bottom.

The image was made on a blank business card. The stamps are by Stampendous. I stamped the image a while back to see how it looks. 

The parameters for Craft Roulette were 

Project-A2

Colors-Fresh and Clean

Element-From the Desert

Random-Distressed edge

The one that is a head scratcher is thecolor parameter and how my card works with it. I followed Donna Shelcucky .

December Calendar layout Easter trying to be Christmas

The patterned paper, though unknown, has been a source of conflict on this layout. The large snowflake is a Creative Memories die cut, while the smaller white snowflake is a Spellbinders die cut.

The patterned paper is so busy. It complements the blue shirts and sage-colored walls. I adhered a double mat to  the photo hoping it would make the photo stand out but it gets lost amidst the busy patterned paper.

So, what’s the issue? I believe it’s the red and green border. It doesn’t match the patterned paper. I was trying too hard to make it Christmas when the picture was taken on Easter.

I appreciate you stopping by today. Have a great day!
