July Christmas Card Challenge Entry

Don't let the title fool you, I really am that far behind on the Christmas Card challenge I joined on SCS. But after playing with my new goodies and casing a card from the SU September SS magazine, I got it done. I just love the new Ornament Punch and matching stamp set, as well as the shimmer paints, they are so yummy. The new Texturz Plate - Perfect Details was a nice addition to give the piece of Soft Suede and the ornaments (below) on the back a little pizazz. The Holiday Best Hostess set is perfect for your Fall needs as well as Valentine's Day. It's easy to earn, just host a $150 workshop and it's yours, along with at least $15 in more free goodies of your choosing.

Shimmery Ornament Punch Vase

Here's a card I am putting in the mail for my little sister tomorrow, I used the new SU ornament punch from the Holiday Mini but turned it upside down and trimmed off the top to make it a Vase. But first stamped it using a stamp from the Delightful Decorations stamp set in the new Shimmer Paint (both also in the Holiday mini). Used the Autumn Days stamp set for the flower, after painting it with craft ink, Rose Red and Always Artichoke. Dipping it into Iridescent Ice EP. Adding some of the Circle Fire rhinestone brads, all layered on Basic Grey, Bermuda Bay and Very Vanilla CS. And stamped my little "sparkle" sentiment in Basic Gray Classic Ink with the Warm Words Stamp Set.
