For today's challenge to use half of the stamped image, I made two from the same Inkadinkado Santa image. Tres Chic on Cranberry Crisp in matching ink, lined edges with Zig painty pen. Gold organdy ribbon and some gold filigree jewelry findings with pearls in center.

Joanne, your cards are so pretty. They may be *half* images, but nothing is missing. Thanks for putting the stamp next to your cards so we could see the *whole* image. Neat layouts!!

Awesome Job Joanne..... This looks so good cropped like that. I love the Tres Chic background. It is my all time favorite. The touch of gold is a great accent.

LOVE both of your cards!! I really miss the Cranberry Crisp color and would love to see it return. One thing this challenge tells me is that so many images can be so much more versatile if I just remember to crop them like you did!!
