Tis the Season

Hi and welcome!  As soon as I saw Jen Mitchell's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches I saw a Santa belt and I couldn't unsee it, so just had to go with it!


I did have to re-arrange the sketch layers to fit my vision but I think you can still see the sketch.  This was really simple.  A square gold frame, black strip and red background - both of which were embossed with the Subtle embossing folder to add some fabric-like texture.


The sentiment was already hot-foiled so this was probably the quickest card I've made in months!

Thanks for visiting.  The DT have some fabulous cards so I hope you'll check them out.




Products used:

Cardstock:  White, Black, Cherry Crisp (MFT), Gold foil
Dies:  Square nesting dies (Waffle Flower), Holiday Sentiments Series 2 (Spellbinders)
Accessories:  Gold Hot Foil, Subtle Embossing Folder (SU)

Cheers
Karren

I absolutely saw the Santa belt, too, and couldn't unsee it! Love the gold in your design, Karren.
