The
Jingle Belles challenge this week is to make a holiday card using "NO
RED!" While red is one of my favorite colors, especially for the holidays, it wasn't hard putting one together without it...
I love this new ice skate stamp set from
Papertrey Ink. It comes with different sock patterns and lots of darling sentiments for winter. My sentiment is a
SRM sticker. ;) I embossed the snowflake pattern and added "snowball puffs" to the end of the laces and some chunky glitter to the ice skate blades. Closer:
I love the colors and had a ball making this one... since it involved glitter! The thing about Jingle Belles is that I can take my time making a super, awesome, detailed holiday card once a week and have a load of them done and ready to send by the time Christmas comes along. The only problem I'm going to run into is deciding which one to give to whom! Enjoy!

SUPER cute!!!! Of course, I can't skate worth a beans, but then what do you expect from someone who prides herself as a "desert rat"? :D
ReplyDeleteI love your embossed background (one of my faves), and how you popped up one of the skates to give it dimension. The glittery "snowball puffs"? AWESOME!! And your background DP is just so cheerful and happy. Love this card! :)
Wow, I think this is my favorite of your holiday cards so far! Love the white on white look and that embossing is fantastic! Oh and the little puff balls hanging from the skates... brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing people on your holiday list will be sending you reservations for this fabulous design ... the pom poms on the strings reminded me of the big pom poms I use4d to have on the end of my roller skates ... and the glittery is beautiful too (and while I usually don't like music on blogs, I'm enjoying your tunes) ... thanks for joining our jingle belles fun.
