Mistletoe Christmas


 I'm continuing to play with watercolors. I made this little mistletoe image after watching a video on painting winter foliage, and I like it enough to use it on a card.

The card is mini slimline size with a white base. I found the patterned paper already cut on a diagonal, and trimmed just the tiniest bit to fit it onto the card, where I think the strong diagonal adds a little interest. The mistletoe itself is matted on red and accented with a bit of baker's twine. The sentiment is from Stamp Simply.

The card is entered into these challenges:

Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge #568 -- anything Christmas

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge -- use patterned paper

  4. Hi Sandy. The 5" x 7" embossing folder do work fine with a Cuttlebug - just in case you change your mind.
