Snippet cards

Seems I never have enough generic cards on hand. You know the type...the ones that do not have a sentiment and that could suit any occasion.

I always need that type of card when I mail out the Rudolph Days Challenge prizes. I was doing a bit more organizing in my craft room and found just that type of card! Little Miss C and I took a class last year at the local papercrafts shop. We made 8 or 10 cards each. Most had sentiments but luckily, this design was left sentiment free.

Here is a photo of 2 cards we made from this snippets type design.

The class had us make all the cards from the same coordinating papers. So the banners on this card well suited using up the slim leftover snippets of DP. There was one piece  of DP that had wee circles of design. We punched those out to add to the banner border and  pop dotted some of them forward...just to give a bit of depth and for some impact.

The butterfly was die cut from a snippet of textured card and the addition of some teensy rhinestones finished it off. The white background mat was embossed with a sort of damask pattern.

I promptly allocated mine to the Rudolph Days drawer and quickly purchased the other from Little Miss C. She was delighted to have sold a card before we even left the store!  I am trying to build up my stash of generic cards...so I may just make up a few of these and use up more snippets by doing so.

I am entering this card in the following challenges.
1. Pixies Crafty Workshop- must use snippets.
