A Very Merry Christmas - Cozy Christmas Eve


Okay, the next set in this Hunkydory Deco Large set is called "Cozy Christmas Eve".  As before, I've added the coordinating papers & inserts & Little Book, but have only used 1/2 of the resulting set. 

This first card was made using a mat of red Ripple Holographic card stock from HOTP.  The picture is one of those from the coordinating "Little Book", and has several elements that were cut from another of the same image that had been mounted on card stock and fussy cut before being added with foam tape.  The sentiment is one of the die cuts from the set.


On the inside, I used a couple small strips of the red holographic card stock for borders & a small fussy cut image from another image from the Little Book.


This next card started with a background cut from the coordinating card stock & layered with a variety of the die cut pieces on foam tape.  The die cut sentiment was added the same way.


The inside is a fussy-cut piece of coordinating card stock with a star sticker added to the top of the tree.


This card is the one that starts with the original base image - once again with die cut pieces added with foam tape.  The picture is offset a little to allow for the ribbon border & bow on the left side.


The inside of this one is cut from the coordinating insert paper.


The last two cards in this set are both created from the same image from the Little Book.  Some of the added dimensional pieces are fussy cut from another of the same image, while the rest are the remaining die cuts from the set.  The borders are also cut off and added with foam tape for additional dimension.  The sentiments on each are from the Little Book of Essential Christmas Greetings 2016.  


 The inside of this one has a strip of insert paper forming a border.


This last one has a similar card front to the last one, except that different pieces are elevated with foam tape, and the card is mounted on a white base instead of cream.


The inside of this one has a piece of one of the images from the Little Book to form a border.

So - this makes 5 more cards for a total of 17 so far - and we've barely scratched the surface of HALF of this set!!!
