I am honored  to be a part of the Keeping Christmas Inspiration Blog Hop.  

It's time for this month's installment of Keeping Christmas with The Challenge design team!  We will be sharing Christmas creations on the 25th of each month!!!

The whole idea is to have some Christmas cards and projects in our stash all ready to go for December 2018!

So hop along and be sure to visit each blog. 

There is a lot of inspiration and ideas to get your creative juices flowing!

My cards are created on white card bases.  I used the Simon Says Stamps Brilliant Gifts Die to create the packages.  I cut the die twice using gold and silver glitter paper making sure to save all the negative spaces.  I adhered the outline of the gifts on each card base with Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive  and then added in all the negative spaces on both cards alternating the silver and gold pieces of the packages.  This took about 15 minutes.  

Using my Misti, I stamped the sentiment from The Ton Holiday Lyrics in black Memento ink.  I added gold stars and rhinestones to complete my cards.  These were so easy to create and I love all the shine and glimmer!  I plan to make a few more for my 2018 Christmas stash! 

I sure hope you enjoyed my cards today!  Thanks for stopping by!  Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.  I love to hear from you!

The hop is hosted by the fabulous Kelly Lunceford's blog, so head over there to start from the beginning.

ENJOY the blog hop!  I hope we inspired you to make a few cards, too!

HUGS!
