~Make It Monday Applique and an Ornament~

I kept this card simple for 
 
 


 I DID bring out my sewing machine for it (but you don't have to).




Thank you, Heather, for challenging me with your tutorial!





It comes with a gift inside-utilizing the die cut I punched out. ;)





 This ornament was created using a past technique, 
 
 

 
 
Cereal box cardboard was used for layers.
You wouldn't believe how substantial this ornament feels.
 
 

Very cool-inexpensive gift!

My colors were inspired by the beautiful photo at

Thanks for stopping by. ;)

    What a cool card. And, you are fast. I haven't even had a chance to watch the video yet. I really love that set, and you chose some great colors.

    Marlena, what a great idea to include a handmade ornament in your card. I think you did a wonderful job stitching around that image. I don't think I would have attempted that myself. So glad to see you playing along at FYI again!
