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! ♥︎

The Magic of Christmas

Happy Friday, sweet and sparkly friends! I hope my American friends are having a beautiful Thanksgiving! Mine has been busy and lovely. ♥︎

I'm posting today on the Live & Love Crafts blog, where we're celebrating the spirit of Christmas. I was inspired by the magic that surrounds this beautiful season. ♥︎
Maja Design's Vintage Frost Basics create my Sugar Plum Fairy and her winter wonderland, which is paired with Purple I from Pion Design's Palette collection. My fairy is a Tattered Lace die. The heart frame is a Sue Wilson Italian Decorative Frame, while the sweet heart stems on the right are from Impression Obsession. Both are birthday gifts from a treasured friend. ♥︎
Wild Orchid Crafts flowers are sprinkled with Glamour Dust for Christmas sparkle, including the beautiful Lilac roses that coordinate so sweetly with the Vintage Frost designs. Hearts and love are nestled throughout my card, blossoming more beautifully than ever during this season of Hope.
A capped teardrop vintage pearl pin is nestled within the larger bouquet, while a pearl-adorned snowflake charm dangles from the tiny arrangement. A tiny shabby jingle bell jingles from the top of her wings. My die-cut snowflakes are from Cheery Lynn and banner sentiment from My Craft Spot is no longer produced.
The card base is Go Kreate's Large Frame Frilly 10. Milled Lavender distress ink accents my Joy! Crafts Lacey Square and Magnolia Heart Swirls scroll within my flowers. Thank you for fluttering on by and I wish you a magical weekend. ♥︎
