Today I have 3 more cards from the Gingerbread Foil ACK (Artful Card Kit - HOTP), bringing the total to 11 cards so far from this kit.
Card #9 (above): Everything on this card is from the kit - though sometimes modified. The circle that holds the tags was a leftover piece from a border that was used on a card a few days ago. I trimmed the sentiment so that the edge of the paper around it formed the mat.
Inside:
Once again - all is from the kit. I matted the tag on red paper. Cut the border off of the star & replaced it, then added the last leftover circular piece from that border.
Card #10:
This card took some work to figure out. I had the background on the card before I realized I didn't like the "Christmas" die cut on it because it didn't stand out well against such a busy background. So - I made a border with the red paper & some silver strips from my stash. Then I had to figure out what to do to finish the card. I first die cut a "Merry" out of silver from my stash (die is Merry Christmas from HOTP), but it didn't stand out well either. So, I cut it again out of white & glued that a bit offset from the silver so the silver looked a bit like a mat or shadow. I finished the card front by adding the ornament with a small ribbon bow from my stash.
Inside:
Inside I used red patterned paper, a border piece cut in two, and some die cut silver stars - all from the kit.
Card #11:
This card would probably have been better if I had used less of the chevron paper at the bottom. At any rate, after fussy cutting it and adding to the card front, I added a silver border from my stash. The rest is from the kit except for the word "Very" which was a black Dazzles sticker that I colored with a silver Sharpie.
Inside:
For the inside I used a strip of the border paper - fussy cutting the top edge of the chevron. I then layered that on silver card stock from my stash & finished by adding the banner die cut from the kit.
