Welcome to another Festive Friday Hop.

Thank you for joining us -make sure you start by stopping by Terri's blog at

 http://terrisproul.blogspot.com if not, please go back.

You should have hopped here from Chris Hurley's blog at
 http://www.stinkydogdesigns.blogspot.com/ and in case you get lost along the way there is a complete list to the right of everyone taking part of this hop.

This is my little card, hope you like it.

Materials used
Personal die cutting machine
Card stock white (for trees)/ yellow for card
White embossing powder
Heat gun
Ink pads in green & white
Silver snow flake stickers
Scrapbook paper
Viva décor glitter liners – Silver & Holo Iridescent
Viva décor Pearl-Pen Red
Gold foil tape
Plaids Dimensional Magic
Ad Tech dot runner

I took a scrap of white paper for the back ground – I used Ad tech dot runner to glue the background.

I used a couple of different green ink pads to color the trees, added some white ink and white embossing powder, used the heat gun to set the embossing so it would look like snow on the trees. Then, I used dimensional magic to glue the trees together, once dried I use the dot runner to add the trees to the card.

I took a small piece of the gold foil tape and added to the top of the card.  I randomly added some silver snow flake stickers  to the top of the card and added the words “Let It Snow” over the foil tape.

Now at this point the card was done, but this Thursday when I went to take a photo for my post, I  decided to use my viva décor  paints to give it more dimension, so I used the glitter liners  to add more snow to the trees and at the bottom of the trees, also added some to the snowflake stickers

Now make sure to stop by Laura's blog to check out her creation http://www.lauraleesdream.blogspot.com/
Till next time, happy crafting.....

Thanks to a post a friend shared on Face Book, I took a string of lights that sparked on me when I was trying to use them outside, so I took off all the bulbs and the spare ones too and decided to turn them into ornaments, I thought about making jewelry too but the ornament idea won.  All I did was paint them over using Viva Decor's precious metal paints in gold and silver, to most of the bulbs. As you can see on the photos below, l used Viva Decor's precious metal paints in gold and silver to paint the most of the orange light bulbs, to some I just added some glitter by using Viva's glitter liner pens in copper, gold and fuchsia colors.  I did use some distress glitter in red and green from Ranger.    Once dried, I added wire hangers to all the light bulbs, added some gold snowflake wired garland to the neck of the bulbs and I did go over all the bulbs with more glitter and paints to add designs and patterns adding interest and dimension.

I joined a handmade holiday ornament swap! we are supposed to make two ornaments - one to swap and one to donate to the Charity Wings auction tree. Once we signed up for this swap we were assigned a partner, my partner asked I sent her both ornaments since she volunteers at Charity Wings.  I made three ornaments, one was glass, so just in case something went wrong there will still be two ornaments left, one for my partner and one for Charity Wings. All the ornaments sent to Charity Wings will  decorate a tree to be displayed in the Art Center for a week or two, afterwards in early December they will auction off the whole tree to raise funds for all their worthy causes! Here are the ornaments I made:   a glass ornament covered with polymer clay in different colors and added some glitter by using Viva Decor glitter liners  This ornament is made of  SCULPEY® ULTRALIGHT™ , added a template to the clay by using  TRANSLUCENT LIQUID   SCULPEY .   I used several Viva

Welcome to another great Festive Friday Hop, our host is Terri Sproul - make sure to start by visiting Terri’s blog      http://www.terrisproul.blogspot.com This Hop takes place every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month (except for December) – it’s a way to make our Christmas Cards early and come December we’ll be ready to share with all our friends and family. This is my card for this week.   My last card I used rub-ons, this time I decided to go with stamps.  I got some new paints at CHA last week and decided to give them a try along with a couple of markers.  let me know what you think.  Now my camera works, but my cable doesn't so I had to use my son's camera and well the photos are not very good, but if I can borrow a camera at work later on, I will try and replace them, for now I hope these photos are clear enough.  I really liked this card, and I think I'm going to try stamping a little bit more in the future.  Well thank you for stopping
