I received some of the new Cute Squares from Lili of the Valley today and couldn't wait to use them. I made this Christmas card using two of the James The Bear images with cutting one out to make a layered/decoupaged card. I have to say these are so cute and fabulous to make quicky cards and such fabulous heavyweight card too. I had some of the papers left over so decorated the inside too.
It was also a great excuse to use two of my new buttons from Secret Crafter. The holly and tree had button shanks on the back but I cut them off and glued to the card using Pinflair glue. Wendy has loads of new buttons which are great on cards but also will be fabby for knitters too and as always brilliant prices. You can see them HERE.
This card fits 4 challenges:-
- ABC Christmas - T for Trees with extra of buttons
- Charisma Cardz Challenge #39 - Christmas Craft
- Bah Humbug #38 - Across the miles
- Winter Wonderland - A Male Christmas card
