Happy New Year--PPA228

November 23, 2014

It has been a very rainy day!!!!!  It poured and poured!  I stayed home all day and worked on my Christmas tree.  I have never put it up before Thanksgiving, but we are going to Indiana to see my family and I will be so happy it is finished when I get back!!!  I also crept into the craft room after a long nap and made a card for the Pals Paper Arts Challenge.  The sketch was designed by the talented Margaret Moody.  This is such a perfect sketch to use for any occasion.

                       New Year's Eve is creeping up!  I will be ready!  

                   Wink of Stella adds the perfect touch to the toast!

Thanks for stopping by.  Please leave a comment and let me know what you think.  I love to hear from you!

Happy Stampin'!

Merry & Bright--Merry Monday #135

November 19, 2014

The Merry Monday Christmas Challenge has provided me the opportunity to make so many cards for Christmas.  I have really enjoyed all the challenges and  I am so thankful that my stack of cards is growing and there are still a few more weeks to play along!

The Design Team inspires me each week and I am always excited to run in my craft room and play along.  Sue's challenge calls for a project with Christmas Bells.  I hope you enjoy my card!

--This card did not photograph well.  I tried outside and inside.  I am sorry the colors do not do the card justice.  I used clear embossing powder on the pine needles and Wink of Stella.  They glisten so beautifully and the silver bells from the foil are so bright and merry.  I hope you can see this when you view my card.  --  Feeling frustrated---

Thanks for stopping by my blog.  I love to hear from you, so please leave a comment if you have a minute!

If you have any questions on my card or Stampin' Up! contact me at: Claire.

Stay warm!

Happy Stampin!
