Thank you for joining us  

Donna Baes ,

 Shannon Edwards , 
and my friend Jessiac Pickeral 

Welcome ladies!! 

Our cue this month is 

All Is Calm

Fitting for the month of December

I absolutely love making Christmas cards and sending to those who appreciate all the work that goes into making a single card, let alone 60 or more per year.

This is probably one of my favorites!! 

 

For this card, I stamped the image onto PTI white cardstock. It is very Copic friendly, with no bleeding, or drinking up the ink in the markers!

Using poppy red cardstock as my base, I dug around through my pattern paper for some plaid!

 Plaid just says Christmas to me! #madforplaid

See the top left corner?? I found a pine bough, and a mistletoe branch. I stamped, and colored them, then fussy cut them out to add some dimension to this card...at first, I was going to use the sentiment on the inside, but when I "tested" it out on front, I liked it right there! 

(yes, it barely fit on that die cut)

I added some silver thread from Stampin' Up, and some Prima red flowers~

I also added some Wink of Stella clear glitter to the snow, the smoke, and the clouds.

Below is the kit I used and a link to Unity's website so you can check it out for yourself. I have to say, that since I joined Unity's Kit of the Month I have not been disappointed. 

We don't get a preview of the upcoming kit before it is sent, but I know I'll just love it!!

Have you seen the December KOM?? It looks like Unity made that kit just for me!! It's perfect!! 

All Kinds of Holiday Love KOM 9/2019

I'll admit, I am terrified!

 I won't have techniques, or anything fancy, but I will share an array of cards, not just Christmas

 I really hope you join me and comment, because I'll be drawing 2 winners for a grab bag of stamps from Unity just for commenting on my week..
