CCT February Technique Challenge


Hello! At Christmas Card Throwdown we have a technique challenge for you!

 
This is a great technique for tackling that mountain of patterned paper (what do you mean, you don't have a mountain of patterned paper??)
 
I used a wonderful tutorial by our very own Patricia Hays. You can find it by scrolling down this post from Splitcoast Stampers. I'm not usually a fan of techniques that appear to require mathematical precision, but this really doesn't, it is very easy and straightforward!
 
We can't wait to see your cards! April x

My card is super-snippety so I am sending it to Di and Parsnip at Pixie's Snippets Playground!

    This is super April! Did you use snippets to start off with? We'd love to see you in the Playground, gated open at midnight and I don't mind a leetle bit of back linking :) Thanks for the link as well - great technique!

    Hugs

      Thanks Darnell! I have said to Di in the past that my patterned paper mountain is so big it is making its own application to be a member state of the EU!! Xx
