Believe - Merry Christmas using Happy Medium Christmas Kit from Creative Escape Papercrafting


Hi Bev here again. I am using Happy Medium Christmas Kit from Creative Escape Papercrafting to create lots of cards to share with you. What a fabulous mix of colours, patterns and accents. It makes creating so much fun and so easy.

For this card I choose the journaling card and matted it and cut a green mat to match for the card base colour.

I then cut the print pieces to fit the base... some fun prints and stripes look great together.



I prepared the centre piece with foam to pop it and matted a die cut Sentiment. 



I decided to add another red ribbon to the bottom section.



Finally deciding on the finished design I glued together all the pieces and added the last red tied bow accent. It's amazing what you can do with just pieces of a kit.

Thanks for stopping by... see you again soon.
