With 53 days until Christmas {who’s counting} I have a feeling that todays Artisan Blog hop is going to feature lots of Christmas ideas! You may already be on the hop and come in from Susan Wong or this this your first time, I know that all I am thinking about is Christmas! Well Christmas Parties that is, I need to host a few for different social groups so this week any extra time I had was spent on Pinterest pinning theme, food and craft ideas to help me decide on what I am doing this year, the ideas in my head don’t always match the time I have to prepare.
I will admit I have spent a lot of time on Pinterest and had to cut myself off so I could get to my desk and stamp!
For one of the groups I decided on a fondue theme, we are going to have a great time and the personality are the happy, positive type so be merry was a perfect greeting of the invite. I love this card as it is Kraft chic! I adore a little bling and the Champagne glimmer paper really makes this card. You may get sick of the little Santa image because I plan on using it LOTS as we approach Christmas, the image is from Holiday Home I have stamped the image over the top of a star from Many Merry Stars that was stamped on Kraft Cardstock and I used the Star Framelits.
Above is the inside design, again my Santa flying over the greeting which is a builder set, “Eat. Drink and” is all one image then in the set is Celebrate, Be Merry, Be Scary and Give Thanks, the stamp set is called Holiday Invitation. I plan on writing a note under the stamped greeting. I have made this more of a greeting card then a invite but I did this as the group are cardmakers and it suits then plus I feel a card with a note to gather is a little more relaxed then a formal invitation.
