Double D, Dreaming Of A White Christmas

Good Morning! 

A brand new Challenge starts at The Double D Challenge Blog, and here is your Inspirational Tile:

 
Dreaming Of A White Christmas
 
 
Here is my card:
 
***disclaimer***  That is NOT silver paper that actually is white glitter paper, but the 'sparkle' is from silver glitter.....it looks so much 'whiter' in real life.

 
I will confess that I was trying to channel my inner Kathy Krug.....best to leave it to the professional.
 
Many dies were used on this project which was really so much FUN to make.
 
Spellbinders:  Majestic labels 25, Beaded and Classic Ovals.
Impression Obsession:  Poinsettia Set Small.
Paper Smooches:  Foliage 2.
Elizabeth Crafts Design:  Tags And More 1 - Lace.


 
I assembled 5 of the Poinsettias, some have pop dots in between their layers for a bit more depth and dimension.  Then I just stuck foliage in and around. 


 
Everything is just layer upon layer.  When I finished where I thought Kathy would I then added a Shaker element.  Sorry Kathy, but I had to put my own spin on it.  :) 
 
Glitter Papers, Vellum, Swiss Dots Embossing Folder, Adhesive Pearls, Fun Foam, Glitter, Sequins and Sparkly Ribbons.....all for accents.
 
You have plenty of time to join in on this Challenge.....I hope to see you over there!
 
This was super FUN to make!
 
Thanks for stopping by!
 
Enjoy~~

  3. woooo, Donna! Never have I seen such a beautiful shaker card! I love the filigree in your design, and the soft subtle lavender to bring out the white elements so dramatically. It's obvious your sweet fingers were busy and happy creating these pearl-centered poinsettias! It's one of the prettiest cards I've seen this season! Could not be any gorgeous-er, my friend! hugs, de

  4. Wowzer! This is a stunner for sure! You have quite outdone yourself my friend. I think tat you channeled Kathy very well. I think she would be proud. Fabulous design and so alluring. I had to take a closer look. Just marvelous and exquisite. And you topped it all off as a shaker card. You can't get any better than that. Watch out Hallmark!
