SSC138 ~Christmas Bells


 I was so excited to play along with the sketch challenge at: Sunday Stamps.  I don't think I ever use the right side of my card nearly enough and this was the perfect opportunity to explore that option.  I also included a picture of the advent tree project I had been working on the past few days.  You can read more about that in my previous post. So, you see I had left over gold acetate paper and thought it would look lovely as a background on today's featured card.  I used black ribbon to enhance the side panel, and embossed the bells in gold (note two bells for the two sides challenge). I also added a golden bow with a brad to the top of the bells.  I debated whether or not to add the Sentiment.  I think it would have been lovely without too, but you know me, still working on the less is more concept. haha   So it's added. 

Thank you so much for spending at my blog.
