Chevrons and glitter

Merry Christmas y'all!
I know, I know, the new "Flashback" line from KI Memories is not for Christmas.
But I can't get enough of it!
AND the "B" side of the "Viewfinder" sheet of patterned paper is that cool gold & white chevron and I thought it could pass for kind of Christmas-y.
Combine that patterned paper with some glittery paper & stickers and you've got quite a nice foundation for some pretty Christmas projects!
So I thought I would try it.
I pulled out some KI Memories Christmas Puffies, a sheet of kraft cardstock, a couple of large circle punches and I was ready to make some stuff.
I made a 5" x 5" card and a 4.25" x 5.5" card out of the kraft cardstock.
The KI glitter cardstock and the "Viewfinder"/gold & white chevron patterned paper were used as the background papers for both cards.
Then I used the punched circles, glitter stickers, and Puffies to embellish each card.




When I finished the cards I used the scraps I had left over to make a tag.
I had forgotten about the red chevron washi tape that goes with the "Flashback" line.
Shame on me!
 But it too is Christmas-y enough to use for Christmas projects!
So I made sure to use it on this tag.
I really stink at making tags but I thought this one turned out OK!


Hope your holidays are going great!!
Merry Christmas and thanks for stopping by!
