Cardabilites #65

There are only 7 days left until Christmas and so far it has
been a wonderful few weeks!  I have been making a few
cards to give away and saw that they had a new sketch up
on Cardabilites so I thought I would join in and use
a few scraps I had in my stash.

This weeks sketch is below but since 
I don't have that shape I used one of my
favorite dies from Spellbinders- Blossom Four
to cut out the LOTV image and the backround using
Doodlebug Christmas papers! To make the cards
glisten I used some Diamond stickles on them too!


 I also made the flowers on both of the
cards using the layered Poinsettia die
from Spellbinders S5-055.  It's a beautiful
die and you can do them in so many colors
to decorate things for Christmas.  A great
tip for getting out intricate dies is to use
a bit of wax paper or parchment between the
die and the paper.  They pop out so easy with it!

I made another quick card and used a few
flags to put as a backround and added a pretty bow
and another tiny poinsettia on top.  I added stickles
on her coat to make her outfit shine and a fun
diamond embellishment from Prima on the flower.

Thanks for stopping over and have a very
blessed holiday and don't forget to hug
someone special today!!
