Mojo Monday 267- Another Pieced Background

I was playing with scraps again tonight like the card I made for The Perfect Sentiment Challenge Blog. This one used snowy scraps and a cardstock sticker from the Wonderland Paper Pack and pieces of Basic Grey from the cover sheet in one of the collections. If you'd like to know how to piece a background this way, I explained it on my blog post yesterday.



This fun sketch from Mojo Monday gave me the inspiration to use another pieced rectangle.


I usually put a sentiment on the front, but I hoped it would look enough like a Christmas Card that I wouldn't need to fit anything else into the design. The inside sentiment is one I love. It goes really well with snowy or wintery Christmas cards.



It says: May the spirit of Christmas warm your heart All Year Long.
