LOOK WHAT JANETTE MADE ME DO..

 Hello everyone,

Well, the corset has been getting a real good workout, I've had lots of fun and lots of disasters, well, not disasters, but been unimpressed shall we say....but reading my comments Janette came up with, this would  make a nice Christmas card too..................so..................I did..


These papers from Rosies Studio have been in my stash since my crafting time began
noy a lot left but one sheet was perfect for this project..


A red and fine gold stripe foil type paper.


So I cut the corset out, glued things in place and added pop pom trim
and another white hat 3 times for thickness, added tiny strip of paper and pom pom trim,..


Card base, 6 x 6 papers and added music sheet along bottom, they were 2 inch panels, I have lots of those that size and add just the right amount on short paper.
and big white snowflakes die cut out on thicker paper and they cut perfect.


Time for hat treatment, I cut tiny snowflakes and glued them in place, trimmed the edges..


Then lost the die, found it 2 hours later when I leant on the desk
 and felt a sting near my elbow..yay, it was the snowflake die.


Then I die cut this bow and it was the perfect size..


Nearly there..just needs a bit of something else.


Fir tree branches..


such a dilemma..


poked in this side


then slid the sentiment under it slightly..
DONE!

There you go Janette, a Christmas one..ha ha ha..
Thank you so much for stopping by..
I'll see you soon..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Oh my gosh, I so love that pom pom trim on the hat and corset! Love the papers and the cool snowflake die, great idea to add small ones to dress up the hat, pretty bow to top it off!
