Christmas Blessings

Hello all! Isn't it exciting, Christmas is only a couple of days away. I've got a few more present to wrap and then I should be ready.

No Christmas card to share with you today, but I do have some fun butterflies... The card base is created from Rustic Cream cardstock. The butterflies were punched from the same paper, crinkled, embellished with raspberry rhinestones, and then randomly placed onto the card to look like they were fluttering by to wish someone a happy anniversary.

My mother in law is arriving today and Christmas will be celebrated at my house this year. So, I am really looking forward to spending time with family and together rejoicing in the greatest gift ever given, the birth of our Savior.

"She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sin." Matthew 1:21

I truly hope you all have a blessed and a Merry Christmas!!!

Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #15

Another fabulous Raspberry Suite Color Challenge by Dawn McVey! Here is what I came up with...

The card base is made from cream cardstock, even though it looks white. The butterflies were punched from melon and pink cardstock then crinkled, for a bit of a distressed look, to match the torn edge of the pink cardstock below. Then embellished with spring moss buttons. The vine border was inked in spring moss and the apron lace border was punched from melon cardstock. Finished the card of with a touch of cream twine and a sentiment.

That girl always amazes me with her creative color combos!

Aren't you amazed...No stitching or knots! :D Except for the buttons of course, but that doesn't count. Anyways, I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Thanks for visiting me today, hope you enjoyed the card! Bye, bye!
