Another Trio for the Holidays
This dishes are done and there are plenty of left overs in the fridge.
It's time to get your craft on and create your holiday cards.
Here are 3 more ideas to consider!
Are you a Washi Tape Lover?
Create your own patterned paper using various washi tape in the Christmas/holiday theme.
Putting them at an angle is pleasing to the eye!
How about paper flowers?
Layer our red Paper Flowers with a cardstock cut out...add some pearl bling...
and cut the green paper flowers to add the leaves.
The magic of Christmas makes a poinsettia!! Wow!
Are you one who is eagerly looking for Santa?
Our Mr. & Mrs. Claus Brads make a great focal point on your card,
without having to color them in. This is especially helpful when you are mass producing cards!
Other supplies:
Do you like the style of A Country Christmas?
Create a Barn Door by making 2 scores that have the edges meet in the middle.
Bend our Pewter Round Brads to create the door handles.
Decorate as desired. Here is used the following:
I hope these cards from the past get your creative mojo flowing.
Take a look through your stash and make these ideas your own...
Wishing you the happiest of Christmases and a healthy, peaceful New Year!

Three Faves

Here are just three of my favorites...with a few tricks and tips for you too!
I love this one b/c it show cases our Bling Jewels and Bling Strips!
A holiday card with glitz and gleam bring warmth to the season!

or why not buy more.
Chances are you have great stamps in your crafty alcove.

If you are a fan of wreaths, check out this tip to create a nice circle.
Here I make the wreath on a card stock circle, of the same background as my base.
By doing so, it blends into the background.

Sunny Days!
Fall is filled with sunshine and and the colors of nature and change.
I created a sunflower using Eyelet Outlet's Paper Flowers.
Bling and Enamel Dots create the center focal point.
The wide washi tape is flanked by strips of thin washi...and the green ties in the composistion.
A Butterfly brad also helps to carry the theme.
