Christmas Card Club - Window or Door

This fortnight,  Margaret at Dutchess Blog  chose the theme of windows or doors. You can check out the other members cards by clicking on the hyperlinks for them on my richt sidebar. If you ever want to join, just drop me an email at maureenkane@telus,.net.

My card is a Wellington decoupage. Years ago, I bought a package of decoupage sheets, design papers, sentiments, and various precoloured images in this Wellington theme. I have since lost the front page that told the Wellington collection name...

There are four layers to my decoupage. I tossed away the fifth layer as I find they will not fit through the mail if lifted too high! I kept this card quite simple. Just the layered image, one of the Wellington kit sentiments, and one of their design papers.


I tore the edge of the mat so that I could add a little fine jute twine. I thought it tied the beige/brown colours of the bear back into the mat.
