Christmas Card Blog Hop

Hey there! This month it was decided that we wold do a Christmas card blog hop!  It is being hosted by Jodie from Prairie Paper Haven.  If you are just joining us and would like to start at the beginning, click here.  Otherwise, have a look at a few cards I've been working on!
This card makes me so happy! I used a DigiStamp from Stamp Fairy and colored it with my Prismacolor pencils.  I used paper from the 'Snow Day' 6x6 paper pad by Crate Paper and stamped the sentiment from the 'Happy Christmas' stamp set by Amy R Stamps. I used my Silhouette Cameo to cut both the white circle with the bear image and the scalloped circle. 





I also want to show you is this clean and simple card.
I cut the ornaments from Recollections cardstock and drew the black lines with my Silhouette sketch pens.  I rounded the corners and finished off with another sentiment from the 'Happy Christmas' stamp set by Amy R Stamps.





That's it for today! I hope you enjoyed your time here.  Now it's off to Amy's blog! If you would like to follow the blogs in order, it is listed below!

Christmas is just around the corner!

Good morning!


Christmas is just around the corner and I'm feeling the pressure all around! I spent this morning re-arranging my living room so we can put our tree up this weekend.  I am half done my Christmas shopping and hope to be completely finished by December 2nd!

Today I have to share with you one of the many Christmas cards I have been working on!



This has to be one of my favorites!! I used a DigiStamp from Stamp Fairy and colored it with my Prismacolor pencils.  I then used my Silhouette Cameo to cut a scalloped circle out of shiny gold paper to place my finished image on.  I also used my Cameo to cut the 'Merry Christmas' ticket-what a wonderful, versatile machine!  I used some scrap Recollections card stock (forest green) and some more shiny gold paper as well as a sheet of 6x6 paper from the Making Merry pack by Little Yellow Bicycle for the base. I cannot recall what line the lace ribbon is from but it sure is lovely!

Now I must return to editing more photos for an upcoming Christmas blog hop! Stay tuned!
