Christmas snippets

I had my covid booster jab yesterday and was unsure how I would feel. But having dosed myself up beforehand I just felt a bit off and the perfect distraction was making this Christmas card for Miss Di and her Snippet challenge at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.

It's not my idea, I have adapted it from one that Maxine from Maximum crafts showed us on You tube in the summer, that's how long I have been meaning to get around to doing this card!

I have had these snippets of SU paper for some years now - one or two escaped as you can see in the photo below. I made mine a square card as my snippets were too small for a rectangle base.

The sentiment stamped in the middle is on separate piece of card so that you have something to "butt" up against so to speak as you begin.

I'm also entering this card into the Country View challenge - Christmas. anything goes.

When it came to finishing the card I only needed to snip of the overlapping pieces, but I had an idea to cut it out with a die and left myself with this little snippet frame.

I pondered putting this around the original design and putting the centre onto pads, but in the end this idea won the day. More snippets used too.
