Hats Off to 2010, Hello 2011

I really like the simplicity of this card. The cartouche mounted on the front and inside of the card were traced from a template and then hand cut. After I cut out the front cartouche, I mounted it on a 4" x 6" card (closer to the card fold). Then once it was mounted I hand cut the rectangular card.

The hat was cut using the Create a Critter cartridge, and I used some Studio G blue glitter clue to accent the hat.

The little whistle I hand cut and used a black Sharpie to write 2011, for the mouth piece and the little black line.

The blue and silver paper is actually a file folder, and the sentiment tag is actually a gray and white striped file folder tag. The "Celebrate" sentiment is a Studio G clear stamp.

Overall, I was pleased with it. :)
