I created this card for the banner challenge Julia gave us today. I wanted to used this alphabet from Crafty Secrets, so I had to make a long card. This one measure 4X8 1/4". I also used some of my long hoarded Holiday Thyme papers from SU!
The letters were stamped onto vanilla cs using Riding Hood Red ink and then the edges sponged with Vintage Photo distress ink. I punched holes through the top corners and threaded the silver cord through, then covered with the clear gems and added red ones to the bottom corner. I also added green gems to the corners of the card. Hmmm, is it a card or . . . it's a home decor item. I'm putting a magnetic sheet onto the back and will use it on my refrigerator to decorate for Christmas.
Thanks for looking.
