Here is another card for the challenge at CAS Christmas, where the prerequisite this time is PLAID!
I found this scrap of digital paper in my scraps drawers and simply used some dies to make the focal point and the sentiment. One thing which surprised me somewhat was how 'off' the design looked when the dies were not placed appropriately on the paper. By that I mean that the smidge of pattern looked dreadful if it wasn't centralised and aligned in the two cuts. Maybe I have a touch of OCD! This was the third try with the word JOY, but I'm satisfied with this placement. Bothe the tree and the sentiment are popped into dimensional strips to add a little dimension.
Merry Little Christmas - Anything goes
I really love how you played with this beautiful plaid pattern, Chrissie! I see what you mean about alignment, too...but, I have a touch of OCD myself, what can I say? Thank you so much for playing along with us at CAS Christmas...we always enjoy seeing your creations in the gallery! xx
