Welcome to the February blog hop at From The Heart Stamps! All the team have used images from the Project 100 collection - and there are lots of lovely images to choose from so you'll have a great time hopping between each of us!
I've used the Snowlady and Cardinal image and as part of the fundraiser last year a coloured image was included in the set. This is what I've used, and have printed it directly onto the linen effect card blank. I've simply glittered the edge of the card and added a snowflake charm, tied with bakers twine.
With such a lovely image I didn't think it needed much else!
If you've arrived at my blog from Michelle then you are on the right track! I'm the last in the hop so don't forget to leave me a comment as you could be chosen at random to win an image from the store. After leaving me a comment, go back to the FTHS blog and leave a comment there too.
The hop will end on Monday 8 February at 6am EST and a list of winners will be posted on the FTHS blog on Wednesday 10 February. Good luck!!
What a super Christmas card Ruth! The twine, charm and glittered edges are fab accents to such a lovely image :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right about that sweet snowman needing little else because you don't want to distract from such a great focal point! But your rounded edges and extra sparkle are just the right touches to frame him up!
ReplyDeleteI Love your CAS card. Love how it looks like a painting.

Hey Ruth - love the clean and simple card. Also, the glitter edge is fun. Happy Hop!
ReplyDeleteSometimes, simple works best, and this is one of those times, I'm happy to see a pre-coloured image used, this is what Faith created them for, and will surely inspire other crafters to do the same as it will speed up their christmas card making time no end :)
