For the Inspiration Challenge today (IC505), I was inspired by THIS  mug. This is also for several Dare to Get Dirty Challenges…Dina’s, Sandee’s & Mine! The details are HERE, but you’ll need to be a Fan Club member…it’s easy, just click to find out how.
I wanted to try something a little different for my card…a divided panel using the greeting as the bridge. I’ve seen it done using die cut letters, so I gave it a try using a stamped greeting. It worked pretty well..it just took a little fancy fussy cutting. The large panels were die cut then I determined how much to remove behind where the greeting would fit. After removing this piece, I attached the top & bottom sections to the greeting. The candy canes were also fussy cut & added to the die cut ovals.Â
The little ornament topper was die cut & I used Copics to color a circle for the ornament then punched it w/ a circle punch.Â
These are the Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by!  Don’t forget to check out the DRS Thursday Challenge…I Can Feel It (use Dry Embossing). DRS images are not required & there’s a nice prize up for grabs!
