The Winner Is ….

The past few weeks I’ve been working on and off to create some Holiday greeting cards.  I’m not so sure how I feel about this card, for some reason it screams “County Fair Ribbon Winner” to me … something about that waffle paper and circle combo.  It did get rave reviews from everyone else though, so I’ve decided I’m going to allow myself love it!

Once again I found myself playing with my newest Stampin’ Up! toys (isn’t that what we’re supposed to do???).  I created this in one of my favorite holiday color combinations … Navy and Burgundy.  I know, it’s not exactly traditional – but I’m not really a traditional kind of gal.  While it appears there is a lot to this card, don’t let it fool you.  It surprisingly all comes together very quickly with a few cranks of the Big Shot handle

I have to tell you … the waffle paper is tons of fun to work with and really goes a long way.  I enjoyed it so much I just had to place another order so I could have even more colors to play with!
