Fa la la in the 50's

Photo Details

Poster: jkanack

Very interesting IC today! I fell in love with this fabric because I like mid-century modern:

This is also for the Fan Club Christmas challenge. I used very old SU Christmas dsp; thought the folded trees were funky so I wanted a funky look to the background. I cut some fun foam into rectangles of different sizes, stamped the three colors and then doodled on top of them. Decorated the trees with Stickles and glitter stars. Thanks for the challenges!

Great to be able to use some old dsp, right? Your card looks great for both challenges. I like your pretty trees and the stars on them. I love stars.

Great Card, Jean! I love the background and how you doodled those black patterns around your shapes.

Love your take & remake of the fabric design on your card. It gives your whole card the feeling of a party just waiting to happen as do your fun and funky stripes & dots trees . . . .
