Jingle Bells

Hello
I hope you are having a good weekend, despite what is going on in the world.
Sun is shining here.....hopefully we'll get more of that and less rain.
Definite signs of spring with the primroses and daffodils out.

So what am I sharing today?
A Christmas card!
My first this year..........normally I try to get ahead, but nope
that 'ain't happening this year so far.

I was lucky to win this cute mini stamp set and die in the
Snippets Playground challenge.......and had to have a play.
I always try to make at least one project with a new set,
before it goes on the shelf.

I cut an aperture in the white card blank.

A snippet of black die cut skyline was stuck behind and trimmed.

I wanted Rudolph to "fly" so glued a strip snippet of acetate

 to hang him behind the aperture above the skyline.

Then it needed some tidying up!

To get a reverse image so I could place it on the back and sandwich the acetate,

I used the Stamparatus and silicone sheet.

There's lots of tutorial out there showing how to get a mirror image/ reflection.

I also stuck a snippet of black to the upper section inside.

I then created some "sky" with a snippet of blue glimmer paper,

 stamped jingle bells in two colours, and added some star sequins.
This is a very cute set from Clearly Besotted, which was easy to stamp and die cut.
I think some paper piecing may come next.......
Meantime I'll pop over to the Snippets Playground before it gets dark.....

Stay safe, keep well
Lesley
