HAPPY NEW YEAR

When I decided to start a blog, I wanted to do it the 1st of the year. I have been working on setting it up for a couple days so I could be ready to make my 1st post on New Years Day. I am going to post a couple of my favorite Christmas cards & next weekend I will start my DD's wedding album. After next weekend  I will start posting LOs from that album. Maybe some other things in between sometimes. I am hoping to be a blogger that will post every week. As excited as I am about this, it may be at least a couple times a week. Depending if there is much to blog about. Hope you can stop by & check it out occasionally.

This card was made with Prima's North Country line of papers, flowers & resistant canvas. Stamps were highlighted with stickles. Rosette flower was made from TH rosette die.
 I painted the doilie with Adirondack's Gold Paint Dabber & added pearls to the outer part of the doilie. The middle of the doilie includes a red piece of paper punched out with a 2" scallop punch. A gold sticker on top of that with a red & pearl brad in the middle. It reads Merry Christmas on the top of the card.
 I used Graphic 45 paper & adhesive backed bling on the bottom of the card. I used a border punch on the side of the card & inked the design with distress ink.
 I misted over a mask on the red paper with Graphite Glimmer Mist & added some bling. I inked the doilie with Pine Needles distress ink. The red & white paper is frrom Prima's North Country line & made a rosette with TH rosette die.On top of that is a Christmas metal embellishment from TPC Studio.

Hope everyone has a Happy New Year & Great 2012!!
Happy Scrappin!!
