A few years ago when I subscribed to the Debbi Moore magazine I got a set of Art Deco decoupage as part of the deal. It was amazing artwork, fantastic quality (as it was not paper but card quality die-cut decoupage) and personally I love Art Deco so I would be happy to receive these cards.
Unfortunately they have kept this as part of the subscription deal so as I already had these to use up I did not subscribe again. Personally it would make subscribers of the magazine feel more special if the gift was changed each year and not kept as the same (which it was when someone I know subscribed after me). It would also be better to either have a more generic freebie ie flowers etc or if it has to be Christmas to be more of a traditional one with a few Art Deco ones thrown in.
I have used various backing papers from my stash, from The Works and various CDs like the Here Comes Christmas CD from Polkadoodles.
I have left the embellishments on the card to be quite simple as this amazing decoupage can do all the talking. I have used sentiments and elements from the decoupage sheets and used pearls and gems and glitter glue.
I am entering these cards into the following challenges:
Through the Craft Room Door - Anything goes
