Peace Keeping Christmas

May 25, 2020

I created two card for my blog this month.  I selected Christmas DSP and added it to a Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green card base.  I added a strip of each color to separate the DSP.


I used the Perfect Poinsettia Dies from MFT to make the two poinsettias.  I love this die set.  I used bright pink and red to create the poinsettias.  The leaves were cut with the Garden Green.  I cut the word Peace out five times for each sentiment to add dimension.  A few enamel dots were added to each card.  


The inside of each card is created using a strip of the DSP and a sentiment from Tim Holtz.  I will be making these in different colors to add to my Christmas stash.  


Thanks for stopping by!  Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.  I love to hear from you!  Do you have a favorite? 


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!
