I did a card like this last year and loved it so much I revamped a little this year to send to some friends. This little
Paper Pretties "
Emalina Elf" image always makes me smile. I can't remember where I got these brass bell brads (that really jingle), but I sure wish I could find some more. I also used a Stampin' Up window punch and a Memory Box Christmas ornament die.

ReplyDeleteHow did you get your layers using the Stampin' Up Word Window Punch? I'd like to layer mine like that.

For Jennifer,
ReplyDeleteI made an svg and/or studio file and cut with my silhouette machine. Before that, I used my Cricut Expression machine. I cut a whole bunch out in different colors so they are ready whenever I need them. Black and dark green are the shadows that I use the most.
