I was delighted when Ardyth asked me to be a guest designer for the Muse Card Club. The inspiration challenges are a wonderful place to kick start one's creativity and the group spirit is wonderful. You can join in the fun, not only with your crafting, but you also get to vote for your top 3 cards when the challenge closes.
So why don't you pop on over and join in?
I have just received my Christmas order of Hero Art supplies, and couldn't resist in baptising some of them! So here's my first Christmas card of the season.
The snow embossing folder is so light yet gives great texture. The stamp is one of Shari's Christmas trees (I got all three!) which I coloured with copics, added Diamond Stickles to the star and mounted on foam. The Peace sentiment is a partial stamp of the Dove Peace stamp of Inkadinkado. I have this wonderful shimmery white thread which is a great addition to snowy or Christmasy cards.
We're almost in November, so if you haven't started your Christmas cards, now is a good time to begin!!
I will also enter this for Hero Arts Holiday Challenge

ReplyDeleteSo happy for you Janet that you are here as the Muse for this time around. So deserving! Your work is amazing and this card clearly proves that.
