Festive Friday Blog Hop #8

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.

I’ve been wanting to add a bunting to one of my cards for a while now but just couldn’t decide exactly how I wanted to incorporate it.  So, instead, I decided to make it the main feature of the card.  I started with a glossy red piece of cardstock for the base of the card, added a piece of white doily as a backdrop for the bunting, and then created the bunting with some scraps of scrapbooking paper, a piece of wired baker’s twine, and some small cardstock letters.  For a final touch, I add two small red and green buttons on either side.

I toyed with the idea of adding something at the bottom of the card but after trying a number of options, I found that leaving that blank space was more pleasing to the eye.  I hope you enjoyed taking a look at my card.  Be sure to check out the rest of the participants’ cards – there are always so many great ideas!

Thanks for stopping by!
