To make this card I used--
The left over cardboard shape from a free set of sentiments , .
Table confetti from past Christmases ,
Paper scraps ,
Peel offs left on a sheet ,
Embossing powder in a colour I do not prefer !!!
The remains of a bottle of stickles and snow .
When I saw this challenge I saw it as an opportunity to sort through the ever mounting paper stash that comes out each yearwhen I begin my Christmas Cards. .
I am a great hoarder and have lots of scraps of paper I can't throw away . I also keep things that may come in useful and this applies to the main part of this card .
I got it as a freebie with a magazine a couple of years ago and have used the Christmas sentiments and pictures that popped out of it . Conveniently it was covered with a self adhesive film which on peeling off left a sticky surface . The green embossing powder has been lurking in my tray for ages and is not a colour I am fond of . However it was ideal for covering this shape .
The snow I added was the remains of a bottle of stickles (how hard it is to get the last drop out !)
The peel offs were the last remaining on a sheet where I had used all the horizontal ones .
I am a great collector of table confetti and it was an ideal tiime to sort it out and add some to each aperture .Making this card has helped me to sort out my Christmas Stash .
