i went with twinchies and i basically cheated. i mention this, because you can, too! i found this fab sheet of american crafts xmas paper on clearance last november at a big box crafting store, so OF COURSE i bought a couple of them.
being as the squares are two inches each, they are INSTANT twinchies, and the colors and motifs go really well with a bunch of different eyelet outlet holiday brads, as i showed off in this post from last year. this card has fewer squares, because i was attempting another version of this week's awesome sketch saturday.

i've rotated the sketch and compressed it quite a bit. i like it, though! and i've managed to work in an eyelet outlet poinsettia brad, a sweet cardinal and a candy cane!
stephanie has also got an awesome inchie card to show off. why not hop over to ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ and check it out right now?
What a great take on the sketch, Great card, I have some of that paper but never thought to use them like that, I focus too much on colouring I think. Love the plaid.
ReplyDeleteWell this is a great Christmas card. I do love those long slim ones and I never make enough of them. As already said "great use of the sketch too. X
