52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenge

This weeks challenge on 52 CCT is pick a previous sketch. I've chosen this sketch from March 2012. I've not seen a design like this before so a good challenge and immediately thought of making "flaps" for the front of the card...the sketch reminded me of those old fashioned flip style address/phone pads. (Yes I'm that old) So off I went and it wasn't long before I wished I'd thought of something easy like rows of patterned paper or ribbon!

Oh and thank you 52CCT for the honorable mention for this card here!!

    Oh, this is ever so fun, Pat! Really love the layers and, in turn, dimension you've given to the sketch, and the neutral palette is so soothing!

    Wowsers Pat, that is amazing - well worth the effort you put in, outstanding work! How inspired to use the sketch in that way to make flip panels - ingenious! It's always a pleasure to see your creations for 52 {C}CT! Ruth x

    Wow! Love the flaps, so clever! Also very happy you chose the same sketch as me, it's different isn't it? I think I will try making a flappy card, they are something else! Thanks for joining in with our Previous Sketch challenge
