Teeny tiny Christmas stuff



 For this card, I used a new Sizzix die I got. I have never used such tiny pieces before. It was tricky because glue just wants to ooze out from the small pieces, even if you use a toothpick to apply it.

I used a pile of snippets of cardstock (see photo at right) to create the wreath, tree, and background. I also scored the gray background to create the look of clapboard siding.


This card is entered in these challenges:

  1. Gulp, this is stunning Sandy. And if you, of all people, say it's small and fiddly then it truly is! Really lovely card and the way you even added the clapboard detail - magic! Nice to see the remains of the snippets you used as well.

    Hugs

Stencils and diecuts

  I've had the idea for this card for a while, but I finally got around to making it this week.  I started by stenciling the stone fence...
