An early post ahead of work with a couple of shares and a reminder about 'Freebie Friday' at Sir Stampalot.To be 'in the know' and ahead of the rush you need to sign up to Smudges newsletter here or by clicking on the icon on the left hand side of the home page sidebar here and you will receive their newsletter telling you what freebie you can receive each week.
My card at the top was created through a bauble shaped mask which I cut on the Cricut, brayered with Adirondack denim, butterscotch and ginger and stamped with Hobby Art XM3/05 E Three Kings and QT801A Star. The sentiment is Penny Black 3995F.
This one is a sample I made using one of the new releases from Prickly Pear HH0082 Winters Glow. I cut out the image, coloured with Aquamarkers and mounted it onto a Marianne holly circle die and Magnolia circle die.

Hello Brenda,

Love both cards Brenda.
Smiles:)
The first is my favourite - the gold accents & the multiple mounting is very effective. I love the way you created the bauble too. The way you have echoed the colours in the sentiment panel background is terrific. The second card is strikingly different in the use of green & blue - love that ribbon of the image & the way it is almost possible to feel those long prickly pine needles.
