I was on Pinterest recently and saw that a card of mine was pinned for the first time ever. I'm not afraid to admit that it made me happy to be pinned! You can see it here. I thought I'd share the card here as I know that a lot of people are looking for holiday card ideas.
I used a sketch for this card that I found on Pinterest. The sketch that I used can be seen here. It is from cardabilities, which I was unfamiliar with before I found this sketch. Looks like a fun blog if you like to make cards, which I do on occasion.

I used mostly scraps from the October 2011 Studio Calico kit, Field Guide. The velvet trim was from an older kit. The Merry Christmas stamp that I had planned on using ended up in the garbage (very cheap one from Michael's or something - apparently not worth the 99 cents or whatever that I paid for it), so I just typed the words MERRY CHRISTMAS several times and added a strip of it. I used Mr. Huey SHINE on the snowflake and it added just a perfect touch of glimmer.
I've been adding twine to everything lately and I think it was a perfect touch on this card.
I loved this sketch as it is so versatile! I have also used it for a birthday card already with a ladybug instead of a snowflake.
Enjoy your day everyone!
I remember when that happened to me not too long ago, it is surreal.
