Hello Friends and Welcome to my blog.
I have a new Money Holder Christmas Card/ornament that I would like to share with you today.
In the past I was never a real "card" person. Then I started creating cards and coming up with ways to keep them for other uses. Why not have a card that you can keep and use as decoration...etc.
Here is the Card below.
I love Vintage Shabby chic Style...so I was inspired this week by the beautiful color palette over at the Shabby Tea Room Challenge Blog (it has been a while since I have been able to just sit down and create). This week is pastels..and my Victorian Christmas boot is all about glittery pastel goodness! Vintage is my Style..and I just love girly girl things...and considering I am the only girl in the house..it was nice to see the Simon Says Stamp and Show "Women Only" challenge. Which is perfect because this week I have been creating ornaments and cards to put on my GIRLY Christmas tree.
Here is an up close below..maybe you will see something hiding in there...LOL.
You may be wondering where did Heather get that cute paper? Well...the vintage boot, holly, flowers and Angel all are images from Gecko Galz. The kitty is from a free vintage clipart site..and the tree came off a Christmas image from the Graphic Fairy. I took pieces of images that I liked..and created this Christmas Victorian boot collage. Since I am using an Angel I can share this with the girls at FlutterbyWednesdays. I like the idea of sharing my work with the Make it Monday Challenge (you have a better chance of winning by leaving some love on other blogger's projects..and I think that is fabulous...we all love to receive comments..so leaving some love for others..gets you a chance to win??
Fabulous idea I say). Here is another close up below.
Some of you may recognize this boot from when I did Cassandra's Tag swap. I just created a new collage for the top, and made a bigger holder...to hold up some rolled up money. This is my fancy Girly Money holder card! I will be entering this in Helene's Challenge over at the Flying Unicorn....which is where I got that fabby pink rose..and white rosebuds. Since this is a Christmas card and the ABC Design Team Challenge for the month is Christmas cards...I will be sharing there too! I just love to visit and see what others are creating. You can get some great ideas!!
I am the DT moderated over at Bella Creations of the digi group. This card also meets my own critera for my own challenge. Sorry to say that I will be closing this group at the end of November, but don't worry for I will be moving over to the Oh la la group. I will keep all my GIMP tutorials here on my blog (so you know where they are...lol).
Enjoy your day..and hope you get some creating in!!
Hugs!!
