Festive Friday Blog Hop #7

Welcome to another Festive Friday!  Festive Fridays is a bimonthly blog hop hosted by Terri Sproul.  It gives us the opportunity to create Christmas cards all year long so that we have a batch of them ready to send out at the holidays.  You should have arrived here from:   Angela’s blog  If you’d like to start the hop from the beginning, head on over to: Terri’s blog.

For this card I used some cardstock that is plain blue on one side and has these silver snowflakes embossed on the other.  You can see that I added a small piece of a silver doily peeking out from the inside of the card at the bottom.  Over on the left side, I added a strip of cardstock with the plain blue side showing.  I wrapped a shimmery silver thread around the cardstock and then added a piece of sheer white ribbon and some metal snowflake embellishments.

On the inside, I glued a silver metallic square with tiny snowflakes embossed in it – it’s actually meant to be a gift tag that I believe came with a purchased gift bag but I put it aside to use in crafting.  On top of the square, is a flower made of white netting type fabric with a silver shimmer to it, held together with a silver brad.  I love having this fun little surprise inside the card!

Thanks for stopping by!
