Here is my design:

For this blog hop our theme was Christian Easter celebration.  I decided to make this layered card.  I've made a layered card this past winter and it was a favorite.  

I like this card as the crosses are up on the hill and it reminds me of HIS sacrifice for us. I also like the intricate cuts and details.  I added some flower buttons for spring and to add color.  May you have a blessed Easter and remember HE is the REASON for the SEASON!

Up Next is my creative friend, Connie!

Outside of Card

Inside of Card

For today's challenge I made this Christmas window card.  I started with my base card a red cardstock.  Next, I added a light blue piece of cardstock for my background and white pieces for my window cut-out and the following accent pieces for the window, small snowflakes, greeting and an piece for the greeting inside the card.  I used brown cardstock for the tree and a darker red for the little bird sitting in the tree.

I really like this card and know someone special who will enjoy receiving it in the coming weeks.  It has been nice making cards with you this past design session.  May you and your family have a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Guest Designer for12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop ~ Day#4 (11/27/15)

If you're looking for The Cardz TV Card Designers 

Challenge #6 " Thanksgiving" click here!

Welcome to the 

12 Days of Christmas

Blog Hop

This hop will take place  November 24th through December 5th and there will be new postings each day by 8am eastern standard time. This hop will be full of wonderful ideas and inspiration to get you well on your way of creating all of your beautiful Christmas projects.

This is an awesome way to get a lot of your Christmas cards, scrapbook layouts finished, home decorations completed and maybe even be inspired to create something using a new technique that you have never tried.  There will be a new project posted each and every day by all the wonderful  amazing ladies in this hop. Also each day we will have a guest designer  or two for you to visit.

"You should be arriving from the talented Lisa's blog. If so, GREAT if not, please check out the bottom of my blog for a complete list of the blog line-up." 

There is also blog candy, you can find out more at the beginning of the blog hop where you will find specific details on Lisa's blog!

My design:

I'm sharing a card today with snowflakes.  It seems early but some of the country has already received a white blanket of snow and pretty snowflakes.

Having lived in the Midwest we do occasionally miss the white snow, but we don't miss the ice.  We have ever received snow down in the lower valleys of Arizona but it isn't to often.  They received snow up on the mountains near us the other week and also in the higher elevations (Northern AZ). If we get to missing the snow too much we can go play it on a nearby mountain!  

Thanks for joining me today, may you have a blessed Christmas and upcoming New Year!
