Sequin Mitten + Giveaway

Countdown to Christmas: 4 days!

Just a few more days until Christmas and I am finally finished with my shopping. Now comes the part of waiting for Amazon to deliver the rest of the gifts and then it’ll be a mad dash to gift wrap. Truth be told, I didn’t start shopping until a few days ago, so I’m pretty happy that I was able to get it all done.

I wanted to share this fun card that I created using sequins on the Large Mitten (from DeNami Design). For those who have followed my blog for a while, this card may look semi familiar. I was inspired by THIS old creation and thought I would change it up and feature purples. I personally love the pinks/ reds, but I thought it would be fun to change it up.

I’ve been getting quite a few requests as to how I create these scalloped card bases. I’ll try to do a video as soon as the sun peeks out again! It’s SUPER easy and I’m glad that many of you are liking the way it looks!

I absolutely LOVE this Large Mitten stamp– it’s great for cards, tags and scrapbook pages. You can use it with a wide variety of colors (as shown below) and it still looks amazing. I wanted to give YOU the opportunity to win this stamp, along with a $50 PPP gift certificate.

I’m planning on taking a few days off this week- to relax, spend quality time with family, drink all sorts of yummy holiday drinks and eat like I’m hibernating for the rest of winter. In between, I’m hoping to get in another blog post or two….

QUESTION: anything in particular you’d like me to blog about?

I hope that you’re having a wonderful Christmas season thus far. XO
