Blame it on the bling

I'm totally going to blame this blurry picture on all the bling on this card! I used up every last scrap of the adorable star garland that came in my Paper Pumpkin kit last month on additional Christmas card. You can see my other designs here. Then a friend sent me her leftover star garland (what an awesome friend!) so I got to play with it some more! Penni and I made a bunch of this design, which is nice and flat for mailing (bonus) and is definitely full of Christmas glam with the silver Glimmer Paper and the Silver heat-embossing. Cute and fun!

If you haven't checked out Paper Pumpkin, Stampin' Up's new monthly craft kits for busy people, new stampers, or anyone who just wants a nice "no prep required" craft escape from reality, you really should! Natalie and I just devour ours each month. And I have a fun Facebook group where we share photos, ideas for improvisation, and other things we made with the exclusive stamps that arrive each month like clockwork. We have a contest to see who can be the first to post a picture of the bright orange box it comes in. I hope you'll join us for the Great (Paper) Pumpkin Challenge!
