Inspired Stamps Blog Hop

 Hello everyone and welcome to the Inspired Stamps Blog Hop.  Today the DT was asked to make a set of Christmas cards.  My cards were made using the music staff from the Sing For Joy set and the sentiments from Vintage Christmas set.  Please be sure to leave a comment to be eligible to win a stamp (either HLO Christmas Boy or HLO Christmas Girl).  One commenter will be chosen from each of the DT blogs to win their choice and one commenter from the Inspired Stamps Blog will be chosen to receive BOTH the HLO Christmas Boy  AND the HLO Christmas Girl stamps.  So leave each of us some kind words to eligible.

On each of the cards I used kraft as the card base.  I used Spellbinder pendant die to make the tree,  baker's twine, a button and the same dp.  I also used the open scallop on each of the cards.
 On this card, I used the Joy to the World sentiment and made a 4.25 X 5.5 inch vertical card.
 On this card, I used the Merry Christmas sentiment and made a horizontal 4.25 X 5.5 inch card.
For this card I folded an A2 size card and cut with the largest Spellbinder lacey scallop die. I used a circle die to cut the dp.  I attached the Oh Holy Night! sentiment to dp and cut excess to match angle of circle.
I hope you enjoyed my creations using the Sing for Joy and Vintage Christmas sets.  Be sure to leave a comment to be eligible to win and visit Kary's Blog next.

Have a Blesssed day!

  4. The Kraft background had a really nice look for these cards. I especially like the Circle card because of the different shape. Nice job. Linda E.
