Festive Friday Blog Hop

Hello! Welcome to another Festive Friday blog hop where we post Christmas card ideas every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month (except December).

You should have come from Angela's blog, Midnight Crafting but if you've started here then use the Festive Friday image to hop around all participating blogs or the list below.



This week: "SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL", a pretty background, simple embellishments and a sentiment.

This is an over sized 5.5 x 8.5 card using blue glitter tree paper (5 x7.5) by Robin's Nest along with some of their white felt snowflakes. This tree paper is much more breath-taking in person with the glitter effect on the trees, it makes a beautifully chilly background.

The sentiment was printed on white cardstock using Duetica.com font Mandolyn 1-F00 and Times New Roman, trimmed and inked with Adirondak Sail Boat Blue. The card front is mounted on to white card stock with inked edges.

Thank you for hopping! Now, you're off to Leslie-Rahye's blog. Be sure to visit all 15 participating blogs for lots of inspiration and ideas.
