I stamped, coloured and die cut my garden girl image. I diecut the grass to create a mask. I used the first half to mask the sky and inked the green. Then used the other half to mask the green and ink the sky. I did this very basic just to add some colour, but you could make additional masks to create more dimension (maybe add clouds for example). I stamped my sentiment in the corner of the inked background and added my image using foam pads to match the sketch.

Christmas Delight

• Hunkydory snowy season luxury card collection: Christmas Delight
• Hunkydory little book of snowy scenes
• silver mirri card
• pink & white satin ribbons
• A5, DL & 6x4" landscape & 8x8" white card blanks

For the A5 card, I cut the cardstock to size to cover the front of the card blank. I then simply positioned the image and sentiment toppers overlapping on different depths of foam pads. I cut the coordinating insert down to complete the card.

Using the same cardstock, I cut a 6x4" section with the border running across the base for this card. Again, I simply arranged an image and sentiment topper from the collection on foam pads. I trimmed the sentiment section from the centre of the remaining matching topper sheet to finish the inside.

I created this DL card to make a feature of the image section on the other patterned cardstock sheet from the collection. I trimmed it to fill the card front, then angled the sentiment on top using foam pads for dimension and a knot of ribbon as embellishment. The insert sheet featured the mirror image of the card front, trimmed down to fit neatly inside.

For the final card, I used a little book image to compliment the large sentiment from this set. I cut the  mat of silver mirri card to cover the 8" card blank. I then cut a layer of the patterned cardstock. I wrapped the satin ribbon around opposite corners, with a bow tied at the top. The ribbon was secured on the back of the cardstock before gluing onto the card front to keep a neat finish. I matted the little book page onto silver to create the topper and glued down off centre using foam pads. I overlaid the sentiment topper using deeper foam pads for added dimension. I glued the remaining insert inside to complete the card.

I matt and layered the cardstock onto the card blank. I added the topper and frames at opposite angles, using foam tape to glue. I embellished the two opposite corners with gems. To finish the card, I added the coordinating insert trimmed down to fit inside.
