Happy Monday everyone!

Today I wanted to share a birthday card that I made for one of my nieces!

It features an image from Dilly Bean Stamps... Isn't it beautiful?! And what a perfect image for my niece's birthday! It's colored with Copics and I added a touch of sparkle with the Wink of Stella Pen. For the background I used Tim Holtz Latticework stencil and Peeled Paint distress ink, the sentiment is from Paper Smooches. I used a MFT die for the corner and I cut the flowers out of some Simple Stories polka-dot DP with a Joy Craft die... added a small punched flower and gem to the center of the flowers and there you have it!

Have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by!

HOC Blog Hop

Welcome to the House of Cards Term One Blog Hop!  If you've arrived here from Nonni's blog then you are in the right place.  If not, pop on over to the House of Cards challenge blog because you don't want to miss anything along the way!  We've got some fabulous sponsors that are providing prizes, so make sure to leave comments at each stop for a chance to win!

This month we're doing things a little different.  Our challenge will run from December 1st until December 15th and ANY CARD STYLE is welcome and we have a beautiful photo inspiration for you to work with!

For my first creation I went with a Vintage Style card using an image from Delicious Doodles called Christmas Candles.  I love how this card turned out!  The poinsettias are layered and the entire card has been spritzed with Perfect Pearls Mist.  The seed beads are a gorgeous silver color and I made a little charm with a Swarovski crystal in the center to match!

For my next creation I decided to make a Fun & Cute gift bag using an adorable image from Dilly Bean Stamps! This gift bag came together so fast... and it's perfect for smaller Christmas gifts! You can't see it in the photo but his hat & scarf are covered with Rock Candy Distress Stickles.  I know I've said this before but I LOVE this stuff... when dry, it looks like sugar! :)  

Well, that's all from me today... your next stop on the hop is Vannessa's blog.

Have fun hopping and thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs, Tammy
