Blue Christmas

Hello, dear friends! I have been unable to visit you this week and am missing your beautiful creations. Due to family and health reasons, I have had to take a bit of a break. I will be visiting you as I can. ♥︎

I am posting on the Live & Love Crafts blog today, where this week's theme is Blue Christmas. I couldn't resist using Maja Design's new collection Home for the Holidays yet again. It is truly lovely. ♥︎

Edit: This is also my DT card for the new Anything Goes challenge at Deep Ocean Challenge, where my teamies have stunning inspiration for you!
I used part of the White Christmas scene to create a card for a nature lover. The Christmas birdies are fussy cut from Maja's previous Christmas collection, A Gift for You. The Prima Resin Birdhouse is covered in Shabby White Frantage and hangs from half pearls. The snowy branches in the image have been dusted with Glamour Dust.
The flowers are some of Sandy's newest goodies. I layered You Do Lace and Burlap flowers and centered them with Frosted Berries. Cheyenne trim ruffles beneath. Sandy has a plethora of gorgeous metal embellishments and my card includes one of her snowflake charms and sweet teeny jingly bells.

The heart frame is from Sue Wilson's Italian Decorative Frames collection, which is layered atop Go Kreate Frame Frilly #10 and Joy! Crafts Lacey Square dies.

Thank you for visiting and I wish you a beautiful weekend! ♥︎

Winter Birthday

Hello, sweet friends! I hope you're having a lovely day. :o) I'm posting on the Live & Love Crafts blog today, showcasing beautiful papers from Maja Design's Home for the Holidays and Vintage Frost Basics.
A dear loved one has a winter birthday and this versatile collection is perfect for such an occasion. The tiny snowflake paper on the front is from Maja's 6x6 Winter Frost Basics, only because I don't yet own the Home for the Holidays 6x6 pad for a small-scale snowflake pattern. It's nice when paper collections work so wonderfully together.
My friend has a beautiful heart of gold, so a Prima Lace Heart resin piece serves as the focal point, which is covered in Shabby White Frantage. Wild Orchid Crafts flowers are covered in Glamour Dust, while pretty trims ruffle throughout the design. The lace Juliette bow is centered with an exquisite Button Etoile.
Inside is one of the gorgeous snowflake designs for a flurry of birthday love. ♥︎ 

Several lovely dies were used throughout my card. The card base is Spellbinders Romantic Rectangles, while the top die-cut layer is the stunning Sue Wilson Embroidered Strip. Magnolia Heart Flourishes accent my flower arrangements, Cheery Lynn Snowflakes flutter about, and the My Craft Spot sentiment was cut with a Spellbinders Lacey Pennant. 

Thank you for visiting and I wish you a wonderful weekend. ♥︎

Santa

Happy December, sweet friends! I hope you're having a beautiful week. :o)

Due to severe time constraints, my card is serving two purposes. Both of my teams have new challenges beginning today, so I tailored it to both themes. At Live & Love Crafts, we're all about Sparkle this month! In a few hours the new Deep Ocean Challenge goes live with the fun theme of Santa is Coming to Town. ♥︎
Sparkle abounds in the form of Glamour Dust, which cover every flower and most embellishments. The gorgeous Santa image is from Maja Design's Vintage Frost Basics, while all of the other papers are from Maja's new collection Home for the Holidays.
Sandy has a ton of new products in the store, including this stunning Button Etoile which I've set atop a Magnolia snowflake. Blue Prima Vax Cord secures Liberty Bells to the Penny Black Heart String.
Sweet Wild Orchid Crafts blossoms are nestled alongside Tulle and Valerie trims for fun texture. (Pretend some paragraphs aren't centered... not sure why that happened and Blogger won't let me fix it!) 

Thank you for visiting and I wish you a sparkly day! ♥︎
