The rounded shape of the PTI ink pads created some interesting swirly designs and my first thought was to go with a snowflake card, but instead went with sequins.
I love the PTI one Liner dies!
The inked panel is cut narrow to leave room for a trio of jingle bells.
This second card is for the Festive Friday Challenge 21.
I've used the aqua & red color combination a few times of the last couple of weeks - it really is one of my favorites!
This card is super simple - it started with the patterned paper and some paper scraps. The snowflakes extend from the paper and the simple die cut provides the sentiment. I need a number of flat cards for mailing, so didn't add any bulk to this one.
Thanks for stopping by,
