I thought I'd share one of the cards from my Bright Hopes Stamp A Stack Class that I held on Monday night! It was one of my favorites…mainly because of the non-traditional Christmas colors! I borrowed the general layout from Mary Brown…switching up a few tihngs, like where I placed the greeting and the flower in the center of the tree!

The base of the card is Night of Navy. I added a layer of Wisteria Wonder that I ran thru the Big Shot with the Snow Burst Impressions Folder. There is a piece of Wisteria Wonder Patterns DSP in the background. I added a strip of Silver Glimmer Paper and then wrapped the Night of Navy 1/4 Grosgrain Ribbon around and adhered in the back.

The tree from Stampin' Up!'s Bright Hopes stamp set is stamped with Lucky Limeade on Naturals cardstock on the Ovals #2 diecut. I added the flower from Itty Bitty Punches in Night of Navy in the center with a small Pearl Jewel. It is popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals on the front of the card. Finally, I added a Lucky Limeade banner with Merry Christmas. These colors just POP for me!

Got to run and finish up some projects for my Stamp Clubs tonight! AND…need to get my Challenge card done for tomorrow's Create with Connie and Mary challenge! Have a WONDERFUL day!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 24 years and just had my 23rd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
