I don't know if my mojo's back, but I am so determined to stick with JB weekly challenges!!!! I love seeing my ever-growing stack of Christmas cards just waiting to be mailed!!! I feel so accomplished already !!!!! :-)
Anyhoo , back to the challenge; here's what I made ....
Lot's of diecuts for this card! I used my SU scallop circle die for the card base and my Cricut ( George cartridge) for the circle which I embossed with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder. The tag is from Winter Frolic and is inked in Marina Mist , the same colopr cardstock for the circle mat and all the inking. SU snowflakes die are spritzed in Glimmer Mist ( really wish they would show up better in the photo!!! urgh!!) and I added a glimmmer brad to hide the foam popdot I put on each snowflake. Oh, and of course, I stitched the circle mat and the ribbon.Finally the sentiment is SU's Christmas Greetings set.
Thanks June for the inspiration!!!!!
Until next time... happy crafting!!!!!
I love blue. I love snowflakes (and snowMEN, too!). I love Glimmermist (even though it doesn't show well in photos!). I love this card. Circle cards are so fun and different. Maybe I'll do one this week? Hmmm... tryin' to get my mojo back this week. Thanks for the great card and the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteHi, Candy! Thanks for the nice intro...I am grinning from ear to ear.
ReplyDeleteI gotta say I think you found your mojo again! I really like blue-snow theme holiday cards. That tag is on Winter Frolic? That's what I love about blogging...learning from my blogger buddies. I love the stitching I had a Singer Pixie sewing machine my mom gave me for Christmas (a small sewing machine for scrapbookers). I used it once to do a treatment like that on a card, then I could never get it to work well after that. I returned the machine and the store manager said it was a lemon and gave me a new machine. My mom played with the new machine and said it wasn't any better, so she returned it. My grandma gave me her machine last week, and it is still sitting in the case. Thanks for the inspiration! I'm going to get it out right now :)
Are the glimmer brads SU? Love them!
Great shape card, Candy!!!
Love that glittery brad in the center of the snowflakes ... and that stitched ribbon is wonderful ... fabulous holiday design ... I think it is mojo-licious ... thanks for joining our jingle belles fun.
