We R Memory Keepers and Crafty Secrets Card for Little Red Wagon Challenge

Hi there!  Back again for a quick post to share a card I made for the challenge over at Little Red Wagon!   The challenge for this week is to make a Christmas card ... or as they put it "No restrictions, no nothing; just create us a lovely card that you will have ready for the coming holidays".  So without further ado ... here is my card ...

 

I did some paper weaving with the striped paper, embossed the red mat behind the image, and added some stickles.  If you had enough of the images, you could easily make a lot of these cards!  Here are the details ...

Supplies:

• Base card stock and red 'mat' card stock - Bazzill Basics 'Card Shoppe' card stock
• Patterned paper - We R Memory Keepers 'Peppermint Twist' collection
• Image and Sentiment - Crafty Secrets 'Christmas 07'
• Brown ink - Tim Holtz Distressed Ink Pad 'Brushed Corduroy'
• Stickles 'Platinum' and 'Christmas Red' - Ranger Ink

 Tools:

•  Martha Stewart / EK Success Paper Trimmer
• Cuttlebug
• Spellbinders 'Scalloped Squares Small' dies
• Cuttlebug embossing folder 'Birds & Swirls'
• Scissers, craft knife, ruler
• Inkssentials Ink Applicator

Tips:  'Fussy Cutting is always a great way to make an image become the 'main event' on a project!

Hope you've enjoyed your visit today!  Come back soon, because I hope to be sharing the 'pocket card' that I made for my Mama's birthday very soon!  Blessings, Becky
