12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop Day 8

Good morning Crafty Friends!

Welcome to Day 8 of the 12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop brought to us by Lisa of HoneyBearz Designs.  This is a 12 day hop where we will be showcasing Christmas/Holiday projects of all types!  Be sure to stop by and follow each blog (comment each day) for your chance to win many, many sponsored prizes and Lisa's goodies too!  I have a feeling there will be blog candy along the way for you to win as well. :)

If you've arrived here from Anita ~ Anita & Bugs then you are in the right spot!  If you just happened upon my blog then you'll want to get all the juicy details at the beginning of the hop with Lisa (above).  Thanks for stopping by today!  I'm super excited for this challenging hop.  I love hops that make me be more productive than I normally am! LOL It's a great challenge for myself.  I just can't wait to see what every one else has been creating this season so I will list all the stops below for an easy way to find everyone.

On to today's project... This is a card using the same paper line (mostly) as the cards on Days 6 & 7. I also used that same cute little snowman stamp and the same Cuttlebug die that the snowman was on for the trees.  Aren't they just sweet?  I got the ideas from a kit (of four) from my local scrapbooking store, so they are not totally my designs, but I always incorporate something to make them my own. ;O)  Again, this is another card from last year.

The button that was added was made by using a circle punch, adhesive, paper piercer for the holes and a clear button.  Now I use my Epiphany punch which I purchased at A Jillian Vance Design to create these.  Much simpler! ;)  Again, I added tulle and a torn sheet of blue just to jazz it up (as my mom would say) a little bit.  Of course, my edges are inked, as always.  Cute, simple, and sweet!

 Thanks for stopping by today!  Now you are on to Lynda to see what lovely creation she has in store for us today.  Don't forget to leave a comment and become a follower if you want to enter to win the grand prize!
