Christmas in July 6 - (TCP Tuesday 218)

 
Today's card is for TCP Tuesday (TCPTUES218) which is a color challenge of Aqua, Red and Kraft selected by our hostess, Lori. I immediately thought of the colors from an older Cosmo Cricket pad Mitten Weather and as a result I now have Christmas in July card number 6 completed.

I stamped last winter's The Cat's Pajamas Peeking set, combining paper piecing and Copic coloring. I attached the image to a tag shape, placing a partial piece cut with the Snowflake Lace Paper CutUps underneath. The white snowflake was leftover from a prior project.  I had planned on using a real button at the top but since everything up to that point was flat and mail ready, I decided to go with a paper button instead. That will save me 20 cents in postage!

Christmas Card Tip of the day:  A touch of paper piecing combined with coloring adds a lot of interest to an image.
