tangling a christmas card


Here is my Christmas card for this week's challenge.
I have used a combination of techniques that I have been wanting to play with.  
First I drew the tree baubles, cut them from coloured cardstock
and tangled them with Hibred and XYP.
I wrapped baker's twine around the top of each bauble and tied a bow.
The "merry christmas" was typed onto a thick fabric with our old manual typewriter.  I then frayed the edges of the fabric and attached it to a small piece of cardstock with two eyelets.
I lightly stamped the kraft card with a brown snowflake and rounded the corners.  The edges were "antiqued" with a brown stamp pad gently brushed around the edge of the card.
I elevated the merry christmas and the baubles with foam pads to give a raised effect.
Too fun!
