Happy Wednesday all....I hope all my Canadians friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends. And here we are mid October....crazy how fast the time goes.
Today I used THREE Framelit Dies...Stars, Banners and Wonderful Wreath. I am really loving the stars, can't seem to get enough. So many ways to present them and so many occasions to share them.
I used some unusual colors for this Christmas offering. Basic black is the card base at 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored at 4-1/4 and the mats are Whisper White ...5-1/4 x 4 and Cherry Cobbler ..5 x 3-3/4. I used the Stars Framelit to cut out the two star shapes and the started filling in to where I was happy. Gold Glimmer and Silver Glimmer paper gave that shine to the stars and the Joy sentiment.
Close up you can really see the dimension. And of course I did some special things inside... I think Amy got me going on that. Thanks Amy.What do you think.....
Still room to write a special Holiday Greeting of your own. Now here are the links should you want to check out all the products I used today.
And the sketch that was our "muse".....
Have a great day and enjoy your trip through the blog world. We love to hear from you so please leave a comment. Come back again...
