Pile it up!

I needed to make a card to hold a christmas gift voucher [actually I need a few more than one!].....I tend to 'pile it up'..........but mainly with layers on my cards......so was inspired by Jennifer's 'Pile it Up' post to use a lot more layered up embellishments than usual.
This card started as a 12 x 12 piece.......folded into quarters.....with a semi circular piece cut out for the voucher to pop into......it had a stamped image added.....and then lots of embellishments piled on.
I made a matching tag with an insert for the voucher.....you can just see it tucked in the card in the top photo.

That's a neat idea, Jacky: a two=in-one :). I am sure it will be a hit. Your layering is lovely.

I love the tag for the voucher, and all the embellishments go so well with the adorable stamped image! I especially like the holly & berries! x

Love this! I finished my last Christmas card this weekend . . . although they don't have as many layers as yours, I did pull out some of my stamps to use! :>)
