Happy Christmas Eve! Are you all ready for the big day? We're just about to load the car up and head off my guy's parents for the big
But before I dash I wanted to share just a couple more cards and wish you all a very merry Christmas! :)
These card designs use both the negative and positive of a die-cut snowflake and also fit the current Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge.
First up, the positive shape:


This design was for cards to be hand-delivered. No way was I trusting Royal Mail with the amount of fragile dimension on this design!

Although Henri Matisse was famous for 'drawing with scissors' when implementing the idea of positive and negative space, I bet if he had a die cutting machine, he'd have used it! *wink*
Wishing you all a very happy holidays!
Catch ya later! (after the turkey - ha!)
