Hi there! It's Kim from
Katydid Cards. This is my last post for Miss Kate Cuttables. After two and a half years of enjoying being a design team member for Miss Kate, I have decided to step down. But I will still be sure to continue to get my
Freebie of the Day and I encourage you to do the same.
And I'll see you on the Galleria as I will definitely be following to see what the design team and you fans create each month.
For my card today, I used several Miss Kate SVG files;
Waiting for Santa and
Dog as well as various patterned papers from the
Winter Woodland Digital Collection. As you can see, this cute little pup is waiting for Santa to come to fill his stocking with lots of goodies.
I wanted to turn this into an easel card, so I cut the base to accommodate I thought it would be fun to put a battery operated tealight candle behind the fire, so I cut a piece of vellum to fit. As the area above the mantle looked a bit sparse, I filled a gold bowl with Poinsettia brads from Eyelet Outlet and added a candle embellishment on the right accented with another EO brad, Holly.
Here's another look from the side. I didn't take a picture of it, but if you know about easel cards, you know this lies flat for mailing...such a cool idea!
I couldn't get the best picture of it, though I took dozens, here's the card with the tealight behind it.
As this is the end of an era, so to speak. I took a trip down memory lane, looking at all the cards I've made using Miss Kate's files. Some are among my favorites. Here's a
link if you want to look, too.
