Hearts Come Home Double Z Fold Christmas Card

I love leftovers - on the craft table as well as in the fridge!  They make things so much quicker and easier!

This is a card of leftovers!  The strangely coloured sky (perhaps it's the Northern Lights) was spare strip of watercolour paper that I used months ago to mop up some leftover ink and water after a watercolour background session.

Double Z Fold card creates a Christmas scene with Hometown Greetings, In The Woods and Detailed Deer dies

The die cut row of houses was leftover from a previous card where I just wanted to use some of the little bits from the roofs and doors. 

The Sahara Sand trees were cut for another card and eventually discarded.

A previously rejected watercolour background makes for an interesting sky

To give the pine tree some illusion of depth, I cut both of the pine trees in the die set and layered them on top of each other.  I curled out the little pieces in the top layer, placing small pieces of Stampin' Dimensional behind them to keep them popped out.

The greeting is stamped with Shaded Spruce ink onto the Granite Gray cardstock and punched out with the coordinating punch from the Christmas Traditions Punch Tin.

The Glimmer paper star is cut with one of the Starlight Thinlits.
