 Welcome to another share using the wonderful sketch from  Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Here is the sketch we used This is my card I turned the sketch on its side' My card base measures 4 x 6 inches. I have cut a pattern paper to measure 3 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches  and taped it to the card base. I taped some ribbon along the bottom of the card. The checked piece of pattern paper measures  4 x 2 1/2 inches and used some card stock for the base of this  cut it about 1/4 of an inch bigger and tape the two together. The gold glitter is 4 x 3/4 inch, cut a fish tail at one end them place on a card stock and fish tail this as well. all the christmas flowers etc are fussy cut from the pattern papers. Place these onto the card base and then place your sentiment on top. Thank you for visiting Candy Chelepy Build your stash holiday Dt 2022

 Welcome to another month of Christmas using a fabulous sketch from Build your stash Holiday Cardmakers   Here is the sketch for March 2022 I have used an older Uniquely paper range called Holly Jolly Christmas to make this card. My cards measure 4 1/4 x 6 inches so the base paper is 4 x 5 3/4 inches and the strip along the bottom measures 4 x 1 1/4 that is cut from cardstock. The check layer measures 1 x 1 7/8 inches. That is layed flat onto the card base. The middle section (photo of the bird) is 3 x 3 7/8 and the layer of card underneath is 3 1/4 X 4 inches. This piece is raised on foam tape  Then I tied a small bow using some ribbon.  Glued it to the top of the circle sentiment then taped this to the bottom of the middle piece.  Added a small flower to the side then using a black gel pen went around the edge of the card base also the bird picture.
