Christmas Cards Cartridge



For this project SweetSassyDiva asked us to make a Christmas card using the Post-IT craft paper. I have been wanting to make all of the cards from the Christmas Cards solutions cart. So I figured I would start with this one. I followed all the layers on the cartridge and everything was cut at 6 inches (the card it self measured 5.5x5.5 I must say that the more I used this sticky paper the more I REALLY like it. A lot of the carts don't have the best directions for layers, and I had to pull up the images a few times before I figured out what went down first and so on. If I had been using regular paper with a tape runner I would have had to re cut more than a few times. I know I know measure twice and glue once, but I forget to do that quite often. All the little swirls were so much easier to work with since they acted like a sticker instead of having to glue tiny pieces. I then used my gel pen to add some dimension to the background and used the snow marker to add all the snow (man I love that pen too!)
