Artistic Christmas

 It has been a busy month, so I apologize for not posting sooner.  We moved into our new house (finally!) at the end of August, so it's been a flurry of unpacking, preparing for my fall classes and clubs, getting the boys ready for school, etc.  So here's a quick post of a card I made this summer.
This is a card I CASEd from Felice Gladue for our WeCanStamp Stampin' Up! demonstrator event.  I was one of the make & take presenters, so everyone got to make this card! 

I love it when you can use a stamp set in more than one way, and I was thrilled that Felice used the Artistic Etchings set to make Christmas ornaments!  How cute is that? 

The circles are stamped in Cherry Cobbler, then stamped again on scrap cardstock.  I punched out the centers of the scrap circles with the 1" circle punch and adhered those to the main circles with dimensionals.  The ornament "handles" are stamped in Always Artichoke. 

To finish, we added some Early Espresso 1/8" taffeta bows and pearl jewels.  My stamp clubs will also be making this card this month!

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings to you,
