Quilt-inspired Card

Hello, everyone!  Today I'm sharing another quilt-inspired card.  The previous one featured puffy stickers in the squares, but this time I went with stamping.  

When I made my previous quilt-inspired cards, I die-cut a bunch of different colours so I would have lots of leftovers for future cards with various colour combinations.  It's a great way to use up scraps!  Today's card uses a bunch of  the unused colours. I adhered the stitched squares on a brown panel and discovered that not all of the squares are the same size; some are slightly larger, but it still worked out.

I used two stamp sets (Jane's Doodles Winter Icons and SugarPea Designs Sweet Treats Christmas).  I won the Jane's Doodles stamp from Crafty Milka a couple years ago (thank you!). I had fun stamping the small images on the various squares and I also adhered four punched snowflakes in white (Recollections punch).  This was a fun card to make and I hope to make more in this style - I still have lots of leftover stitched squares and it's a great design for small stamps!  

I would like to join the following 8 challenges:
Christmas Kickstart 56 Christmas Snippets 2/3 C8
Rudolph Day November AG Christmas 1E C10
Word Art Wednesday 519-520 AG w Uplifting Sentiment wk1 3/5

Thank you for looking at my card!  Wishing you a fun, crafty day!

This is so cute with all the mini holiday images. I really like the pink paired with Kraft. Kraft is so versatile, yet I always forget to use it! Nice work :)

Ooooh, I LOVE this one Kitty! Great colours and a fabulous combination of little Christmas images... they're all so cute! I like the snowflakes you added as well. The stitching in each square really adds to that "quilted" feel. Love it!
