Inspiration from the Design Team

Susan has used Tim Holtz papers and distress inks to create the 'LOVE' banner; die cut ornament in gold card; free papers from a magazine.  Susan fussy cut the edge of the holly so that it could appear over the embossed SU cardstock.  The card is finished with a lovely ribbon and some bling.

Beth used a laser cut shaped card which she backed with Green and Gold glitter paper all from Blue Edge Crafts. Santa and other bits and pieces are stickers. Beth has stuck Santa to a piece of acetate leaving a tab at the top which is folded over and stuck down at the back so that Santa floats over the front of the card which you can see in the second photo. Behind Santa is s Merry Christmas  tag which comes from the same Kaisercraft 6 1/2" paper pack called December 25th.

Cathy used a Square Red card as a base, layered with Gold Shimmer cardstock cut out with Cuttlebug and Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Pendant, holly leaves punched out from two different shades of green, snowflakes punched out from white pearl paper and glued in a circle, clear and red gemstones added for some 'bling', gold peel-off stickers added to corners.

Merry has created this card using a laser cut front card from Blue Edge Crafts.  Added spotty paper from SU.  She then raided her paper scrap box to create these trees.  Merry has used her sewing machine to stitch all the sections together.  Finished with a gold Merry Christmas sticker.
