Christmas Bells

With Thanksgiving less than 2 weeks away I started thinking about making my Christmas cards. It seems if I do not get them made and ready to mail before decorating, I run out of time! This year there are so many wonderful Christmas bundles to choose from, which is great, but then again, I can’t decide. Maybe I will make a wide variety!

Today’s cards features bells from the Cherish the Season Bundle and the Joy from the Joy Dies. Our Cherry Cobbler cardstock is so elegant and doesn’t even have any calories! LOL

I began with a Whisper White card base and added a thin layer of Cherry Cobbler. Using the Cut and Emboss machine I embossed a piece of white cardstock with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. I really love how the softness of these snowflakes brings out the elegance of this card.

I cut a square of Cherry Cobbler and Whisper White using the Layering Squares. The bells and the holly sprigs are cut from Shaded Spruce using the Cherish the Season Bundle. I added a Gold Metallic bow to the top of the bells.

TIP: This gold ribbon frays quite a bit, which I love when making tags, but not so much when it comes to bows for a card. I put a tiny bit of liquid glue on the both ends after cutting to stop the fraying.

Thanks for stopping by! Join me again tomorrow for more crafting tips and ideas. Until then, be blessed!
