Do you need a great card idea to use up your long scraps? How about these?
Purty, aint’ they? I wanted to make some Christmas cards. I had some Fruitcake strips & scraps. Basic Grey Fruitcake, that is. I got the idea from Andrea Walford, a Canadian SU! demonstrator. I made eleven cards in all! Whoo hoo! It took ALL freaking day! OMG! Who would’ve thought it would take all freaking day to make 11 cards? It was fun and I really really do like the result!
There were lots of combinations of paper patterns to choose from to mix and match. I think some of the cards look like a cottage roof!
