December??? Where has this year gone??
Welcome to the second post for today! This one is a Blog Hop too for We Create!
What we do is, ‘we create’ a card then ‘step it up’ or ‘step it over’.
I started with this –
A very nice card! Wonderful – fun, bright, cheery colors! Then I stepped up the design……
……by adding some ribbon behind the sentiment that’s how! I never think to do this, but, it adds so much to a design.
Now, the card is a WOW! This was one of the choices at my November Card Buffet a couple of weeks ago and it was a total hit!!!
I do love the addition of the ribbon. It just makes the card!
Take a little time and tell me your thoughts on the two cards. Then head to the talented Kris Kilkenny. Stampin’ Up Supplies –
- Stamp Set – Watercolor Words
- Card Stock – Berry Burst, Whisper White, Lemon Lime Twist
- Ink – Berry Burst
- DSP – Merry Little Christmas

I like how you used the Christmas paper on a non-Christmas card! What a great way to use up the paper after the holidays. The cards are so biright and cheery. That ribbon is a wow effect! Very pretty!

That pink and green really make the card pop. I love the sentiment and how just a little extra ribbon makes it really stand out.
