Happy Tuesday, friends. The snow has stopped, the sun is shining and I have a Christmas card to show you. It's for the Festive Friday challenge.
Isn't that a gorgeous bowl of red and white ornaments? I was particularly enthralled with the swirled ones.
It took me a while but I finally figured out how to make one of my own. I know that the top is usually where they come together but I don't know how I would have done that. I hand cut the top from silver paper that I also used to cut the delicate chain die. I knew I wanted something other than a plain background and that I would need a place for a sentiment so used the SSS curved edge die and popped up the panel embossed with chain link. The sentiment from PTI is embossed in silver and the greens are from a MS punch. I just may make a few more of these with different ornaments.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your comments so I'd love it if you'd leave one.
