Tres Chic


For today's challenge to use half of the stamped image, I made two from the same Inkadinkado Santa image. Tres Chic on Cranberry Crisp in matching ink, lined edges with Zig painty pen. Gold organdy ribbon and some gold filigree jewelry findings with pearls in center. I got the gold filigree thingies in the jewelry making aisle at Michaels. They have a lot of cool things there that can be used as card embellishments and I really can't let those 40% off coupons go unused...

Hi Joanne! I just got this stamp at Hobby Lobby this week! Your cards are beautiful. I am not actually part of the blogger group6, just keeping the list together :) I would still love to be your blogger buddy though.

Isn't it great to find items that are not in the card/scrapbooking sections that work well (and are inexpensive) for cards!! Love the colors.
