JustRite Christmas Linky Party: Card 1


JustRite is having a Christmas Linky Party through November 8th, so join the fun and link your JustRite Christmas cards -- the more the MERRIER -- between now and then! Besides all the fabulous inspiration you'll garner, there will be surprise gifts from JustRite -- what could be more fun than that?!
For my first card, I used cream and gold, a favorite Christmas color combo. The largest Spellbinders' 2010 Heirloom Ornament die, cut from Core'dinations' Glitter Silk and a SBs' circle die, frames the gold embossed ornament stamp from Vintage Christmas.
During SBs' Handmade Holidays Blog Hop today I was inspired to try Natasha's tulle lacing technique. I cut my folded Papertrey Gold Shimmer CS with a Creative Book Pages die, added my eyelets and laced my tulle. LOVE how this turned out!
My sentiment stamp from Christmas Nested Sentiments and star from a Vintage Christmas border are stamped on a SBs' Double-ended Tag. I cut off the right edge, threaded this tag through my tulle and tied a bow. Can't wait to see all the cards posted so far at JustRite's Linky Party!!!

What a neat idea to use the eyelets and then thread ribbon through. Very creative! It makes a beautiful card!
