You know what they say about checking first.........!

Some of us never learn do we? 

Before :-


After. Spot the difference?


Yes you guessed I stuck it on upside down. Never learn do I? The last time my card could have opened from the left but this one was completely upside down. So nothing else to do but convert my card to an easel  card. No wonder it sometimes takes ages to make a card. I had to cut out another snowflake, well after I figured out which die I had used in the first place since I found the first one in a tub of snowflakes I'd cut out ready to use.

I used :-
Image :- Penny Black.
Sentiment and candi :- Craftwork Cards.
Colouring :- Promarkers.
Pearls :- Hobby House.
DP :- K&Co.
Corners :- Whimsy.
Snowflakes :- Marianne Designs.
Glamour Dust.

Challenges :-
Penny Black :-Cute Christmas.
Penny Black and More at Allsorts :- Any Die Will Do.
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge :- For a man or boy.
Pink Elephant :- Punches/dies.
Christmas Challenges with sketches :- Sketch plus add stitching.
Cards for Men :- Anything Goes.
Crafty Cardmakers :- More than one punch &/or diecut. Snowflake die, Whimsy corner die, nesties, reverse corner punch.
Stampin' for the Weekend :- All stitched up.

Thanks for looking and I'd best check up the last of this weeks entries at Totally Gorjuss since I've been out two nights in a row.

See you tomorrow with my latest DT card.

  1. Hi Kat, and haven't we all done that. Luckily it easily well relatively easy to fix. Your card is gorgeous anyway and we all try to use up our bits. Your colours are great will have to give grey a go.

  7. A super card, love it.
    How many times do we do this silly trick??
    I usually just cut and mount it onto another Base Card the same. Never thought of making it into an easel card. Will give that a go "next" time.
    Happy Crafting

  8. The times I've done that Kat, with me it's usually sidewards.

    It's another lovely creation for the Christmas box, I'm thinking that box is getting pretty full now.

    Thank you so much sharing with us at Penny Black and More challenge this month.

  14. Getting the cards upside down happens to all of us. LoL Probably to make us to stop and don't rush on to the next card to fast. It's very sweet and lovely, a great rescue. Thanks for playing with us over at the Crafty Card Makers this week.
    Love n hugs
