This challenge was to make a card that was influenced by Christmas music (did the title give it away?). And the card that I made has two possible inspirations......
Too easy? Give up?
Jingle Bells or Silver Bells - it fits both since I didn't have any traditional bells and had to use those jingle bell die cuts.
The card base is Brushed Silver and the white panel is embossed with a music folder. I raided my ribbon scrap bag for some of the ribbons and found the braided one in my stash of not yet used stuff. I originally had silver cord in mind to use for hanging the bells but it was elastic cord and a little too unwieldy for trying to glue in straight lines so I opted for some strips of silver textured scrapbook paper - sliced thin but not as thin as salami. The music paper is from a paper pack I was gifted for Christmas (thank you again L) and the greenery were die cuts. I originally thought I was going to add a red bow, but then decided on the silver ribbon to match the strips I had added to that wide ribbon under the circle. Much better choice I think.
Hmmm, now I have to give some thought about what I can do for the next week.
Take a look over here at the Jingle Belles blog to see what other lovely creations have been posted.
I love that braided cord frame ... such pretty silver sparkle ... so very glad you joined our Fa-la-la-la-la at Jingle Belles.
