Less Is More Challenge #447 begins today. We are challenged to make a card for Christmas In July!
I bought some Christmas stash very late in the 2020 Pre-Season, and of course I didn't use any of it in time for Christmas. I was anxious to get some of it out and start on some cards before December 2021 shows up! This very simple card is a Mini-Slimline size 3 1/2 x 6. I just love the size. It has taken me a while to warm up to the slimline craze, but I am getting there. I cut the base from Neenah Solar white 110# card stock. The scalloped panel was cut with a regular slimline die, then placed back in the die and cut again to get it to be the right length for a mini.
The solid candy canes were cut with red foil card stock, and the white layer was cut from white glitter paper. They are popped up with foam tape. The silver hangers were cut with adhesive backed silver paper. The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with clear Embossing Powder.
