Elegant Christmas


Today, at Merry Monday, Lesley and her team are looking for elegant Christmas cards.  I lucked out and had these two embossed pieces on my desk already - just asking to be used.  (Next week, I'm going to have to move away from Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla, 'cause I used them last week too)
Embossing is always elegant (and magical) so this wonderful Snow Swirled tree came out to be used.  I had tried to stamp the greeting on a piece of ribbon, but it just got too messy, so I stamped a piece of Vanilla, cut the strip close to the words and then ran my craft scissors over the paper as though I were curling a piece of gift wrap ribbon.  It breaks down the fibers wonderfully and they curve.

Now I'm off to add some paint to a canvas for another mixed media piece....we'll see how it turns out.

Hope your day is flowing along wonderfully - thanks for stopping by!

Gold Greetings

I haven't done a challenge for a while so decided to play along with the Merry Monday crew.  Their sketch was easy to use this week  and since I was working with quite a bitt of glimmer paper this weekend, I decided to keep up the trend.

Hope you had a great Tuesday - Thanks for dropping by!
