Anyhow, onto today's cards and it's the Kan Ban kit that had the reindeer toppers in - galloping to the rescue once again:
I used:
- DL card stock, length ways
- plain backing card in a mix of cream, dark red and turquoise
- patterned backing card, die cut leaves, poinsettias and sentiments from the kit (I layered the poinsettias for some dimension)
- burgundy organza ribbon with narrower turquoise grosgrain ribbon layered on top
I managed to squeeze eight cards from the kit, all very similar. When the backing paper ran out I used the vellum that was also in the kit, in the same pattern, by using the double sided A4 'sticky sheet' trick and layering it onto white card before treating it like patterned card.
That's me for today - I just wandered into the lounge and spotted Marvin the Monkey wearing the wobbly stars on his head! Now who did that I wonder?

Hi Hun sorry to hear you've had a sore head today. Hope you enjoyed your night out though. Really nice cards. I've not got any Kanban kits yet I keep thinking about it, they look lovely. We finally got our heating back on yesterday nearly 2 weeks without it can you believe it it's been freezing so I'm back on a roll now I was just to cold before to do any crafting. Lots to do though. Hugs Jenny x
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo. Nic cards! The one with the red flower is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteCan you believe it -- I've visited almost every WOYWW site (oh my, but I am at work......)
Too funny! Should we believe you? Being mid week, I think we can! You need to show us your (head) gear next WOYWW....spread the (pain) joy! Lovely cards by the way Di!
