Welcome to the December Tour de Freaks Blog Hop! Can you believe it…Christmas is less than a week away…WOW!!! As a demonstrator we are always excited about ‘new stuff’ and that is what this hop is all about – the NEW Occasions Mini and SAB Brochure!
If you are going forward through the hop you arrived here from Melissa Davies Rubberfunatics blog. LOVE her stuff!
There is SOOOO MUCH fun NEW stuff I had a difficult time deciding what I wanted to do. My friends Jo and Jackie (or as my DH says…the “J’s” were over and as we were playing I decided to use the GORGEOUS Rose Garden thinlits as the focus of my projects. This was one of those things that took on a couple different starts until I ended up with these projects. First my card…
I just LOVE the simple look of this card and it is sooo easy to do. Here’s the details…
Crumb Cake – 4 1/4 x 11 folded
Whisper White – 4 x 5 1/4
Crumb Cake/White Heart print – 3 7/8 x 5 1/8, add to Whisper White layer and add to card front
Whisper White THICK – cut out Rose Wonder framelit 3 times, stack together and adhere to card front
Whisper White – 2 3/4 x 7/8, stamp greeting using Soft Suede, cut into a banner, add using dimensionals.
Now how simple is THAT? And I think it looks so elegant!
