For today’s blog hop I created a quick and simple Christmas card using the newly released Jolly Ornaments. When it comes to holiday cards I always like to try something new and create ones using non-traditional Christmas colour schemes or designs.

'tis the season

For my today’s card I combined dark green floral patterned paper from Enjoy the Ride Paper Pack with pink and gold ornament from the Jolly Ornaments. To create my ornament I used a hot foil technique using Hot Foil Roll - Brushed Gold (Satin). I cut it out using a coordinating die and blended over with Puffy Heart Fresh Dye Ink from Rose Petal Fresh Dye Ink Bundle. My last step was to do a hole with a hole puncher at the top of the ornament and add green ribbon.

'tis the season

That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Kristin Sluhan!

  7. It's nice to see a Christmas card that isn't 'snow oriented' because millions of folks never get snow at Christmas time! Great card!
