The gals over at Jingle Belles are calling out for vintage holiday cards...for some reason I had a heck of a time with this particular challenge.
On Saturday I went to a LSS...they were having 20% off their entire store and yes, when I arrived, there was a line up already...can I insert here that the woman that came AFTER me kept trying to cut in front of me?! What the heck? Yup, she kept moving around and was trying to cut in front of me...sigh...I believe she felt that I couldn't hold my own...but I'm not afraid to break out the ninja moves if I have to. Luckily for that woman, she backed off...okay, sorry about that...just had to share.
Anywho's, I found this sheet of fabulous chippies from Teresa Collins and had to use them on my card for this week...now that I look at the card I'm thinkin' it isn't so vintage BUT I'm going to say that it is amy's version of vintage:)
I'll leave this to the end so it doesn't necessarily bug you at the beginning but how in the heck do you get rid of the sprigs of schtuff when you remove the die cut from the sheet??!!! Do you kwim?!!! With paper die cuts I'll use my Heidi Swapp distressor but what do you do with chippies? Is that a manufacturer's flaw? I haven't seen that in the other chippies I've used...it makes it difficult to remove since the edge is red...I still have several more from the sheet that I'll be using so give me some of your advice gals:)
