Snowman Hat

After I made the previous card, I decided that the holly needed to be on a hat and this is what I came up with. It's hard to see on this but putting the card on white or pink didn't work either so just went with this. The holly leaf is from a Marianne die with no name on it. The "berries are Candi. The ribbon is a scrap that I had. The background is Holiday Magic by M-Bossibilities by Spellbinder's. This looks at 100 times better in real than in this photo but they always do. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Holly Leaves

I've had this card running around in my head for a couple of weeks now. The holly leaves are from a Marianne die but it doesn't have a name on it, and I'm not even sure it's supposed to be a  holly leaf but it looked like one to me so went with it. Be "berries" are Candi that I've had for a long time now. The background folder is Holly Swirls by Sizzix. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon

Merry Christmas

I made this card for the challenge at Joan's Gardens. The rules are * You can make 3 cards this week. * Use any colors. * Use a window. * Use trees. * Must use something sold at Joan's Gardens. I thought this background paper looked like siding on a house so went with it, I've had this paper for a long time and doubt they still make it. The sentiment is from the set Christmas Lodge by Stampin Up. The window is Small Madison Window by Memory Box. The snippet of paper behind the window is a scrap of Tim Holtz Idea-ology paper. The tree is Snowflake Tree by Memory Box glued onto a piece of green cardstock that was ran in the folder Forest Branches by Cuttlebug. I hope this counts as trees, I didn't catch the plural until now, sorry. My tree is a little crooked and I didn't notice that either but guess the wind is just blowing a little :).

The background is dry embossed but you can't really see it in this picture but it's embossed with the folder Holly Swirls by Sizzix. The poinsettia is Tattered Poinsettia by Tim Holtz/ Sizzix. I did add a couple more layers to the poinsettia than what it came with because I wanted it a bit fuller.
