On an off chance sometimes I buy those gorgeous 12 x 12 DP packs - and at the end of last season I picked up this lovely Christmas pack on sale... I can use lots of the paper as card backgrounds but there still remains a heap of sheets with lovely designs... so I decided I should CUT THEM UP!!! If you look closely you'll see these two were a corner design.. I trimmed them to fit my 6 x 4 cards and added a die cut shiny gold sentiment to one and the strip on the other is part of the header strip on a page from the pack. I just noticed that Heidi at Watercooler Wednesday WWC#236 - "All About Occasions" Anything Goes challenge made a gorgeous cardinal card with DP background... I do like to put stamping on my cards but I'm happy today to be using these lovely papers. I am also playing along with Rudolph Days August challenge. Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it - happy to add to my Christmas stash.
