November Cross Canada Blog Hop - Inspired by the Holidays

Welcome to our November Blog Hop featuring artwork that is Inspired by the Holidays. To purchase any of the items seen in our blog hop today, contact your local consultant to place an order.

We hope that you will take the time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new technique that was used that you would like to learn how to do....by leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to see. Thank you… now on to our hop!

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, plus I am the first stop on this months hop. If you came from Corinna's blog then you are in the right place! 

I wanted to create a fabulous card using our Cut Above Merry Everything Card Kit. It's pretty stunning as is, but I knew I could dress it up.



I pulled out the Gold Shimmer Brush, Bitty Sparkles, and the Gold Metallic Marker.  I coloured on the Bitty Sparkles with the Gold Metallic Marker to add some gold colour. I coloured the leaves on the card design with the Gold Shimmer Brush to add some Shimmer. I pulled the red from the card, and used that for the sentiment, Cranberry Ink.  I used 3D Foam Tape to put the circle.





Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Rosalynd.

If you get lost along the way, you can come right back here, as I have provided the full hop list.

Thanks for hopping along with us - we hope we were able to inspire you to get creative using some of the designs, products and techniques seen along the way. We hope you will join us again next month when we will be featuring How we Celebrate the Holidays. So mark December 15th on your calendars and hop along with us.

I decided to use the Beary Christmas paper for my layout.  I used Cranberry and New England Ivy Cardstock which are colours found in this collection.  I even was able to utilize the zipstrip on the layout.  I used December from the Stamp Set and stamped it in New England Ivy Ink and placed it below the photo.

Also used is the Gingerbread Friends Stamp and Thin Cut Bundle to add an additional feature on the layout, and some Beary Christmas Dots in Red.
