Guest Designer Post

Good Evening,

Tonight you are going to see some more ideas using Theresa Momber's  new Christmas set "A Very Merry Christmas",  available from Gina K Designs.  Theresa asked Sharri Seffens and me to be her guest designers this month and tonight she is spotlighting Sharri on her Blog.   You will want to be sure and check out Theresa's blog then go over to see what Sharri has posted on her Blog.

Tonight my card is completed using silver, navy and white.  The tree was embossed using Detail Silver Embossing Powder.  It was cut out using the Classic Oval Nestabilities.  It is matted on a piece of shiny silver card stock.  After the two pieces were attached together, a small portion of the left side was cut off.

The top of the card is a piece of "retired" SU designer paper and the bottom is Night of Navy CS.  They are mounted on a piece of silver card stock.  A piece of silver ribbon was attached across the middle.  The main image was attached first.  The salutation was stamped using Night of Navy ink and inserted into the silver hardward tag.  A SU  embelishment was added at the top and a few silver leaves were punched with a Martha Stewart punch and placed around it.  Some clear rhinestones were added to complete the card. 

Gina K will have another Blog Hop later this week  so be sure and check back for more ideas.  Don't forget to hop over to Theresa's blog now to see what Sharri Seffens has to share. 

Thanks for stopping by.
