House of Cards

***So Excited! this card was chosen as one of the Top Ten at House of Cards!***

Hello!!! I am so excited! The Paper Sweeties Teamies have been invited to participate in the Blog Hop at House Of Cards! And boy, do we have a beautiful inspiration photo!!!

I had so much fun creating this card! 

That inspiration photo has some of my favorite colors...brown and blue. Add silver and white and you get magic!!!! I just knew the holly leaves die from Paper Sweeties Holly Days would be perfect to use on the reindeer. I cut the holly out of some beautiful blue glitter paper. And I knew the Believe die from Paper Sweeties Joy die set would be the perfect addition! I added lots of sparkle and shine with silver embossed snowflakes and sequins! Hope you like my card!

And please check out ALL of the gorgeous creations from my Paper Sweeties design teamies! You will be truly inspired!

Paper Sweeties December Inspiration Challenge #26 - 'Happy Holidays'

Today I finally get to announce that I am so honored and so excited to be asked to join 

the Design Team at Paper Sweeties!!!!  Happy Dance! Happy Dance!!! 

And I get to start with this fabulous inspiration photo!

Happy Holidays!

I just love all of the cute Holiday stamps here at Paper Sweeties! 

So many options, so many choices!

Today I used Holly Days Stamps and Sweet Cuts to make my card. 

First, I die cut the snowflake in various places of a 4 X 51/4 panel of white card stock. I adhered this to some designer paper of the same size with foam adhesive tape. 

Next I used the Happy Days stamps and stamped the ornaments and snowflakes with Versamark Ink. I heat embossed them with gold embossing powder, and die cut them with their matching dies! Before I lifted them out of the die, I sponged them with Festive Berries and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks. The distress ink will not stick to the embossed areas.  Finally, I "hung" the ornaments with gold twine. Red Paper Sweeties sequins were added to finish the card.

Hopefully I have inspired you to join in this challenge and to to visit the Paper Sweeties Shoppe! 

If not...go check out my Paper Sweetie Teamies!

I know you will be inspired by them!
