ABC Christmas Challenge - Q is for...

It's time for a new ABC Christmas Challenge, and this fortnight Dorte is the host and the theme is:

'Q is for Quick'

Our sponsor for this challenge is:

Shape EZ:
Prize - 2 Shape EZ Templates

I used some washi tape and dies to create my quick card...


I covered a piece of scrap white card with three different washi tapes (top one from Freckled Fawn, others from Hobbycraft), then used a die from an old Cuttlebug set (called 'Winter') to cut out the tree shapes. I simply mounted them on to kraft card blanks (these ones are quite little...4 inches square) using 3D foam pads, and added a Lili of the Valley sentiment. It was so quick to make, I made three:


The strip of card with the tree 'negatives' looks quite good too...so I've saved that for another quick project!

I'm also entering these cards into the following challenges:
