Stampin' Up! Australia - Expressions Thinlit Dies - Merry Christmas Card

Hi

This next card came about as a result of my inability to throw anything away....I've always been a bit of a hoarder but it sometimes pays off....as this next card will demonstrate.

Last month, I did some Christmas Treat Bags with my card making class using the Real Red Goodie Gear Simply Created Kit. The kit comes with cool adhesive red & white strips to decorate the tag (see photo below). Stampin' Up! kindly give you way more than you need in each kit so at the end of the class I collected all the off-cuts knowing that they would come in handy for a card that was yet-to-be-conceived! :)

The challenge at Less is More this week is to use 'sparkle' and the challenge at Just Add Ink is to use stars. These two ideas gave me the inspiration that I needed to decorate my card.  I cut some gorgeous Silver Glimmer Paper with my new Expressions Thinlit Dies for my 'sparkle' , then I added some stars using my Merry Minis Punch Pack. 

Hope you like my card!

Cheers

Alison
