GDT Card for Use Your Stuff Challenge - Mood Board

 

I'm back today with another GDT card for the Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog and for this challenge there's a Mood Board to inspire you:

Head over to the challenge blog here for all the details and to see the cards from the Design Team.

I used the Paper Pumpkin Joy to the World kit to make my card.  I layered up the back of one of the cards and patterned paper taken from the inside of the envelopes.

From the mood board I took the wreath, colours from the cards in the bottom right corner and the sentiment.

The wreath is a die cut in the kit and you stamp the greenery stamp (also included) on it.  The sentiment strip is also provided.

Festive Robin Gift Tag for The Little Paper Tree

This week I've made a gift tag using the very cute 'Festive Robins' stamp set from Sunshine and Bee Designs sold through The Little Paper Tree:

My little gift tag is a great way to use up leftover pieces of patterned paper!  I used some red spotty paper across the tag base and also to paper piece the robin.  The rest of the robin was paper pieced with kraft card to match the tag base.

The sentiment is from the stamp set - I simply masked off the word 'happy' when I stamped it.
