Good morning and welcome to another edition of Festive Fridays. If you are new to us, sit back, grab a cup of coffee, relax and enjoy some wonderful Christmas Cards. Yes, I did say Christmas...Festive Fridays will be every other Friday with samples of Christmas cards. This way, you can be making your cards all year long and you will avoid the mad rush when you could be enjoying the Christmas Season. You should have just come from Debbie. If you stumbled upon this post you can go back to Terri and start at the beginning. There is also a complete list of the Festive Friday hop on the left sidebar under the Festive Fridays blinkie in case you get lost along the way.
This was super simple. I used the Christmas cart on my gypsy and cut the tree as a background at 5 inches in plain green cardstock. Then I cut the layer in a glittery paper also at 5 inches. I used scraps for the background and added a bit of lace. The tree is pop dotted to the card base and embellished with flat back pearls. The sentiment came from a Christmas paper pack and fit nicely.
I hope you like my Festive Friday card and hope to see you back in two weeks for another christmas card. Now head on over to Angela and check out what she has for you.
Good morning all
Today is a card I did using the Food for Thoughts stamp set from Getting Cricky. Now remember that for this stamp set, Kristal will donate $1 from each set to the Storefront Shelter for Homeless Children. What an awesome charity if you ask me. I just got the stamps the day before yesterday and I love, love, love this set. Ha, I can't wait to make another card. Sure wish work would quit getting in the way!!! So I created the cut in my gypsy from the Indie Art cart before I even had the stamps in hand yet. Crazy that the ice cream cone would be on that cart and thank goodness it was preloaded on my gypsy because I don't have an ice cream cone on any other cart. Hehehehe
I added glitter to the ice cream after popdotting it to the shadowed layer. I also added some glitter to the sentiment tag and the hearts.
I am sending this card to my niece in Minnesota because she loves ice cream and she will get a kick out of it. Now head on over to Getting Cricky and order your stamp set and get involved with her challenges. Who knows, you might win something cuz you know she is ALWAYS giving something away. Better yet, you might win a guest design spot. That's how I got involved with being on her design team. Yeah!!!
