Now for my project:
I have a 2 page layout I made using the Reach For the Stars file. I didn't go for the traditional Christmas or winter colors, I like the bright & pastel colors of the gloves! The stacked snowpeople were all chalked and pop dotted for dimension and I cut an extra standing snowman to put on my 2nd page. I used a white gel pen to draw the loopies on their sweaters and punched tiny snowflakes for their gloves. The snowflakes are from the SCAL library and I cut them from glitter paper.

Card Caravan Blog Hop Line-up---



                                     Now for my project.

I used the rose file to decorate my card. I made this card for some friends that will be getting married in June. I used their color scheme, black, white, red and a touch of grey. I used a Sizzix embossing folder to emboss the white cardstock, and I used black & red half pearls to dressup the embossing.  I cut a few swirls using the swirls & flourishes from the library in SCAL. I chalked all the petals of the rose and leaves, the leaves are from a Cricut cartridge.


I put black half pearls on the ends of the embossed swirls and a larger red in the middle where the swirls meet.

There is a great video on the Creative Kuts' blog
(http://creativekuts.blogspot.com/ ) that is very helpful on how to put
this flower together.

Next up is Connie (CK)--http://conniecancrop.blogspot.com/ 

Thanks for "hopping" with us! Hope you will find something you like and that you will be inspired by some of the projects you have seen or will see when you have finished this blog hop!!
