I wanted a few Christmas cards with angels on them, so for this month I covered four DL cards with offcuts of plain paper in different colours.
In my Silhouette software I designed the card using several images from my silhouette library, and moving them around until I was happy with the arrangement. The word 'Rejoice' was also in my library though I probably made it myself on another occasion.
I needed to separate out the colours into different layers, and first I cut the angels, candles, holly leaves and star corners from gold vinyl. I used transfer tape to lift them all in their right positions and added them to the card fronts. Then I cut the red candle dish, holly berries and word from red metallic vinyl and added them. Finally I cut the snowflakes from silver holographic vinyl. This time I placed them around the rest wherever they fitted best.
So a set of four cards which were fairly quick and easy to make. The hardest part was choosing, sizing and arranging the elements on my template. Now I have it saved in my library, I could quickly make it as often as I want to.
Time to add this to the Rudolph Day Challenge for May
