Belli Challenge #45 - Christmas Themed!!!


Well here is my Christmas themed card I made. I seen a card like this recently on someones blog and just had to try one for myself. I have been having such stampers block, I chose the easy colors. Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip. You could stamp ANYTHING in these colors and it will still look fabulous. I chose A Wish for Peace stamp set from Stampin Up. You do need the Big Shot with the Top Note Die Cut for the shape. Im not real good at cutting stuff out, but I did do just that to make the Very Vanilla piece smaller then the Riding Hood Red piece. I just used my Snips to cut around the perforated part. I also chose to cut the dove out to give it that really flying feel lol.
The Chocolate Chip designer paper is from Ski Slope, one of my other favorites. As you can see, if you just glue the top parts together, you can get that extra flap in there for your greeting and post a picture of the family on the inside bigger part.
