Have you ever started on a card with great inspiration and then your card/project ends up NOTHING like your inspiration? Well, this is one of those cards. It turned out nothing like I wanted it to. LOL! I had fun anyway and I got one more Christmas card made! Here is my card:
Gina K's Light of the Season(snowflake), frame is from Winter Mittens and the sentiment is from Holiday Greetings. The cardstock is Gina K's Baby Blue that I sponged with white ink, let it dry; embossed the snowflakes with glitter; made the rolled felt flowers, added a few pearls to the centers and stamped the sentiment, then placed it on felt cut with nestabilities.
Now pop on over to Karen's blog. She will wow your socks off with her card and then when you have finished the whole hop be sure to leave a comment at Stamp TV. Thanks for leaving a comment here, I appreciate your time!
Have a Happy Stamping day!
