Time to Decorate!!!

Season’s Greeting, Peace on Earth, Merry Christmas! Okay not quite yet but Holiday Card prep is in full swing and I am excited to share with you my submission for this week’s Freshly Made Challenge.

For the challenges this week I have stuck with the colour theme from Stampin’ UP!’s Letters from Santa DSP. I was really not sure how pink would fit into the equation but it works very well on this ornament sheet and so I decided to go with it!

Hope this card gets you thinking about putting up your Christmas decorations! We are planning to get started this coming weekend J

My Challenge:

My Card:
Tiny Tips:
I find bows to be a little difficult to make with a stiffer ribbon but still wanted to add a piece to this card and so I went with a “cheater bow”. So now how do you make sure you have the side of the ribbon showing that you want? After making your loop make sure you have the correct side of the ribbon on either side facing forward before you tighten your knot!

Thanks for stopping by!

  4. What fun colors for a Christmas card - I'm a bit partial to non-traditional colors so I love to see pink and light blue on Christmas cards. Thanks for playing along with Freshly Made Sketches this week!
