Merry LITTLE Christmas
We're having a Merry LITTLE Christmas at the Jingle Belles Blog ... which means the prompt is to make cards that feature Inchies or Twinchies (2" squares) ... Twinchies are also the perfect little size to make some holiday gift tags.

And since The Moxie Fab World is celebrating Grey is the new Black, I stamped my Hero Arts Stunning Snowflakes & my Inkadinkado Inchies in my favorite ColorBox Charcoal Chalk ink on My Mind's Eye Holly Jolly snowflake designer paper and accented them with pearls and some sparling glitter pen.
I think grey, although a rather unexpected hue for a holiday card, gives a very soft, serene, and peaceful feeling when paired with these images.
To make the card, an 11" x 4 1/4 inch strip of the same DP was scored at 2" on one end and 3 1/2" on the other end to create an off-centered opening. Two inches were adhered on one side of the opening, with the third adhered on the other side.
I love doing this fold with two-sided cardstock, because then the inside is decorated too. For this month's Hero Arts challenge, I also stamped on the inside (see second & third pictures).
So start looking at your stamps & embellishments ... and think LITTLE this week.
