The final push

When I came to write my local cards this week, I found I needed just a few more, so I looked through my files for something quick and easy, and I decided on these cutting files by Judith Henry, which I purchased from craftsuprint.
There was a set of four but I just used two of them, cutting them with my Silhouette Cameo.
The main image, star and corner frames were cut into a plain panel which matched the base card. I then used a rectangle of gold mirri-card behind the camels, and a panel of black glitter vinyl behind the shepherds.

The sentiment did not cut cleanly from the card panel so I decided to cut them separately and add them to the front, using gold vinyl for Happy Christmas for the camels and the same black glitter vinyl for Joy to the World for the shepherds.


I made three of each design which was enough to complete my cards to distribute among local friends.
I am linking up to Scraps of Life by ScrappyMo, for her Rudolph Day extra challenge for anyone who entered this challenge every month during 2019. I have so I qualify.
