Don't mean to alarm you... but.....I've started to make Christmas cards! And so have lots of other stampers at a very new blog called "Winter Wonderland" Each week this site will gently encourage stampers with a challenge so that by the time Christmas gets here- you are well on the way to having those cards done! Week 1's challenge was called "O Christmas Tree" and it was simply just that- make a card with a Christmas tree. - not too hard so far! Mine uses a layout from the Clean and Simple stamping blog- it is one of their "10 minute Monday" cards.I have used Always Artichoke and Purely Pomegranate (retired) cardstock, and Holiday Harmony DSP(retired) The background snow flakes are stamped in silver ink using a stamp from the " short and sweet" set. The sentiment is also from that set. To make the decorations for the trees I punched small holes with my cropadile and added a purely pomegranate scrap behind so that it shows through the holes. A star brad on top and a sprinkling of dazzling diamonds give them that Christmas sparkle! Hope to see you at "Winter Wonderland" next week!
