Happy Sunday!I know it is May and summer is practically here already, but every crafter knows it is never too early to start making christmas cards. Why? Because we need so many at once! At the Paper Wishes Message Board, I am hosting a Christmas Card challenge where every two weeks I post a new theme for the members. For the first challenge, the theme was "Anything Goes" so everyone was allowed to make whatever they wanted. This card is what I came up with today. I usually use a digi but I decided not to today. All of the materials are from Paper Wishes. The papers are from the Christmas Creative Card Makers Pack. The greeting is an embossed greeting that I purchased along with the organza ribbon and brads. To give the card a little extra something, I added a strand of Kreinik Metallic thread on the side and some stickles around the greeting and on the bow.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges in blogland:
1) CES Challenges - Holiday
2) One Stitch at a Time - Anything Goes
3) Penny's Paper Crafty Challenge - Anything Goes
4) Crafty Creations - Anything Goes
5) Fab's Big Christmas Card Challenge - Sentiments
Enjoy the rest of your evenings everyone :) Happy Crafting!
