Good Saturday morning, peeps! Have anything fun planned for the weekend? I will be in my craft room doing final preparations for our community craft fair 12/10/22. It was postponed from 11/5 due to Hurricane Ian. I have so many cards to sell. I hope there is no other card vendor there as it is open to the public this year. Last year only our community folks could attend so I had no competition. Sounds selfish, yes? Yes!
My card this morning is one we made at our card group. Sue L. provided the kit so I don't know where the patterned paper is from, nor the "Merry Christmas". I do know the inside sentiment is from the Brightest Glow Stamp Set and the falling snow are dots of Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics.
Sue loves origami...me not so much so it was a struggle! She had cut the patterned paper with these measurements:
1 1/2" x 1 1/2"
2" x 2"
2 1/2" x 2 1/2"
3" x 3"
You fold a piece in half, open it up and fold the other way in half. Then fold on the diagonal, open it up and fold on the diagonal the other way. Then open, push in two of the sides to create a flat triangle. Fold from the point down two times, et voila! Those are the Cliff Notes...lol! Here's a video for you if you would like to make it.
I'm entering my card at Allsorts Week 703 A/G with option of Trees and Leaves, Creative Knockouts #479 - ATG and Inkspirational Challenge #278 - Photo. Unfortunately, I was not able to copy and paste the photo, but it's a snow globe with a tree and people in it.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you tomorrow with another card group card.
