Square Merry Christmas Card

Hello Stamping Friends.  

I've been practicing my crocheting.  So I haven't 

made a card in a few days.  Happy to be back at 

it with this lovely square card.   I have to give my

hands a break between crafting.  

I will submit this card to the challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

The stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Itty Bitty Christmas, Beary Cute

I'm having so much fun with this stamp set.  I wanted

to use my glitter embossing paste, but it was as hard as 

a rock.  Drats.  I even had it sealed and in a plastic zip

bag to ensure this wouldn't happen, but it did.  So I went

with puff paint instead.  Not as sparkly, but added some 

dimension to the card.  For the third tree I used the polar

bear instead.  I even remembered to tie the ribbon on top this

time.  I stamped the snowflakes in the background and went

a bit overboard with them, so good thing the trees cover it 

up a little.  The green ribbon almost matches the card 

stock so perfectly you can hardly notice it's there.  

Now I thought I'd share a few of my little side projects.

I think I need better yarn for snowflakes

Nothing was working out. 

If you have any suggestions or tips

please let me know.  

I decided to make pumpkin coasters instead 

for now, until I figure out what kind of yarn

works best for snowflakes. 

HP is spending his days snoozing 

lately.  Being 12 years old is tiring. 

The little sweetheart likes to be close by,

he is losing his hearing slowly, and makes 

me so sad, and his eye sight.  SO bless

his heart he just sleeps so peacefully.  

The verse I chose for this card is:

Luke 1:14 KJV

And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
