How happy does this party look!

How could you not make a happy holiday card from this inspiration.

Here's my take:

I was inspired by the pink paper decorations, colorful twine, and cute star plates.

Supplies

Snowflake Medallion Die

 EMBOSSED + OUTLINED BACKGROUNDS

In my Christmas letter I said that my current hobby is waving at my craft supplies while passing to take care of kids =) Found a little time to play this week to try Betsy's neat technique.

I played with 'Rustic Wreath' -embossed it, colored around it and a little in it, added some red berries with fabric puffy paint and a sentiment!

Supplies

Here was our inspiration photo:

My cards:

I found some gold music note vellum that went well with the inspiration photo.

I dry embossed some woodgrain and sewed on some red seed beads for a berry look.

I dry embossed some woodgrain and layered the thanks for a shadow look.

It was fun to ink up some new sets!

Check out this festive inspiration photo!

I wish I had time to make 20 more cards from this photos inspiration. We are enjoying more guests again this weekend, but I snuck in this card:

I put a black and white pattern paper on a kraft cardstock card. Cut leaves from the cute Stylized Autumn set and added some glitter to the lighter one. My sentiment was cut and stamped from the Christmas Cheer set. Last I added some mini cones and some twine.

The mini cones are from an alder tree. I had collected a few of them while I was in college studying Landscape Architecture. I had thought they were so cute and would look great on cards...they do don't they =)

Have a super hop today!

I'm excited to see your festive creations!

USING FLORALS ON A MASCULINE PROJECT 

What a great challenge! We could all use tips on making masculine cards =)

I thought wheat would be a good plant to use on a masculine card.

I ink blended with the new Saffron Spice color for the bottom corner and also my birthday swoosh.

Supplies:
