Triangles and Christmas

I saw a US Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator (Patty Bennett) show how to use the Stitched Triangle Dies to add panels to your card front and thought it was a good idea and decided to have a go. I cut Painted Christmas 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper using the largest of this shape Stitched Triangle Die and attached them to the upper right and lower left hand corners of Basic White card. I stamped the greeting from the Merriest Moments stamp set onto the Basic White card using Real Red ink. I stamped one of the leaf images from the Merriest Moments stamp set three times onto the upper right hand corner of the Basic White card using Evening Evergreen ink.

I stamped various leaves onto Basic White card using Soft Succulent, Just Jade and Evening Evergreen ink and cut them out using the co-ordinating Merriest Frames Dies. I also stamped the berry image from the Merriest Moments stamp set onto Basic White card using Real Red ink and cut it out using the co-ordinating die. I layered the leaves onto the Basic White card over the stamped leaves and included one of the Gold Holly Leaves.

The holly leaves and berries are attached at the top using mini dimensionals. To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped another greeting from the Merriest Moments stamp set onto Basic White card using Evening Evergreen ink. I had one leaf I had stamped and die cut left so I attached that beside the greeting. I attached a narrow strip of Evening Evergreen card behind one long edge of Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper before attaching the panel across the bottom of the stamped card.

Now that I have finished the card, I am not sure whether or not I like it. I think it might just be a little too busy for me. What about you? What do you think?

Bye for now,

Kris
