Here is a pair of cards using a cricut cut sentiment and its negative image.
The Santa on the second card was a 3D sticker I salvaged from a card I received last year. I placed some red paper underneath the white glitter paper from which the Ho Ho Ho above was cut and carefully glued in the centers of the o's and a few other pieces. Cut once, use twice. To this card I added some washi tape and a bow.

I love that you used the negative of the die cut as well Debi. I never think to do that but can see that you can get two cards from one die. I like how the rectangles in the first card look like a pile of gifts without needing a special die. I like the narrow washi tape you used in the second card - I can never find any of the really narrow ones.
ReplyDeleteBoth super cards. That second Santa was too cute to throw away. I'm so glad you recycled him.
ReplyDeleteTwo bright, fun and cheerful cards- love that you used the negative- waste not want not! Thanks for playing along at Crafty Catz this week.

Such fun and festive cards Debi, I especially like the funny little character on the first one. The different sized eyes give him a very quirky look. Love it!
