Papertrey Ink Make It Monday #138 Inlaid Die-cuts

Hello! Another week has rolled by and it's time for another PTI MIM challenge.
Betsy Veldman always has the most cheerful cards!
Today is no exception. 
This technique reminds me of quilting or inlaid wood.

I love how inlaying your die cut creates layers without the bulk making it more simple to put in the post.
To view and try the technique for yourself, go to:

"When we recall Christmas past, we usually find that the simplest things-not the great occasions-give off the greatest glow of happiness." -Bob Hope

Thanks for looking!
Carolanne

Supplies Used:
Stamps-PTI Instant Photo-Holidays
Dies-PTI Coffee Cozy Details, Tag Sale #3, Notched Star Banner
Inks- Memento
Paper- Scandia Jul

  3. This looks like such a fun challenge. I'm anxious to see what others do. Your festive "holly jolly" tag and patterned banners make the perfect easy-to-mail holiday card.
