New Girlz Creative Christmas Challenge - Red and White

 


We're back today on the Girlz Creative Christmas Challenge Blog with a new challenge:


This week we want to see 'red and white' designs.  For all the details and to see the cards from the rest of the team, head over to the challenge blog here.

I recently started using my old Lace templates again on cards.  I found that they cut perfectly through my die cutting machine - for this circular one they just need scoring and folding back to interlace the sections.

Here's another view of my card:


I also used patterned paper from Stampin' Up and a sentiment from Stampin' Up.

As I'm using a template that I haven't used in a long time, I'm going to share this card in The Neglected Stuff Challenge here.
