Christmas Themed Facebook Hop!

Hello everyone! Golly, it's been a busy day! I worked at both of my part-time jobs!  Both took a while so I just arrived home!  Here I am FINALLY blogging! 

Tonight at 5pm PST I'll be participating in a Facebook Hop! You can click on the Facebook Icon to the right of this post and it should take you to my Stampin' UP! Facebook page where you can follow the hop!  

Here's what I'll be sharing on the hop!

Every month at my church we have a DOTK (Daughter of the King) meeting...I think I've mentioned it here before. We eat dinner together, pray, visit and sometimes we CREATE!  Last month I was able to teach the ladies how to make these cards!  I had a BLAST!!

I wanted to keep the card very simple because most ladies had never made cards before. This card has a Whisper White base, layer one is Basic Black and layer two is Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper. I pre-cut ovals using my Stitched Shapes framelits and each lady used the Lovely as a Tree stamp set to stamp the tree in Pear Pizzazz Ink. A piece of Pear Pizzazz 3/8" Shimmery Ribbon is wrapped around the  first and second layers and then the stamped tree image is adhered with dimensionals! The fun thing about this card, especially where we live, is that it can be used for more than just Christmas! 

The next card that we created has a Basic Black cardbase with a layer of Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper.  I pre-cut ovals again using my Stitched Shapes framelits and another piece of Merry Little Christmas dsp. The trees were also pre-cut using the Card Front Builder Framelits and are cut in Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper.  The trees are attached to the oval with dimensionals and the oval is attached to the base also using dimensional.  A bow was tied with a piece of 1/8" Real Red Solid Ribbon and was attached with Multipurpose glue and a Clear Faceted Gem was added to the top of the bow.

There were some Christmas sentiments available to choose from to add to the inside of the cards. It was a really FUN evening!

That's it for today!  THANKS BUNCHES for stopping by! I LOVE what I do and LOVE to share it with you...and others!
