The Shabby Tea Room #93- A Krafty Christmas

Hey there, everyone!  I can't believe that this is my third week as the monthly guest designer for The Shabby Tea Room!  Goodness...I really can't believe that Christmas is in one week!!  I am ready for it....but time has really flown!  TSTR #93- A Krafty Christmas has a great inspiration photo, and the challenge is to create a project using red, kraft, newsprint, silver and a star.

I loved the silver, glittery stars in the inspiration photo....so that was the jumping off point for my card.  The details just kept getting added from that point on!!  Tee hee!  Here is what I craeted:
"Merry Christmas" supplies:
Cardstock/Buttons: Papertrey Ink (kraft) 
Paper: My Mind's Eye (Lost & Found Christmas 6x6 pad), October Afternoon (5&Dime: Wax Bottles) & GCD Studios (Scandia Jul: Hip Holiday Stripe)
Ribbon/Rope/Twine: May Arts
Chipboard: Rusty Pickle
Jewels/Sticker/Glitter: Making Memories
Snowflake ornament/Bells: Michael's brand

Instructions:  Make card from kraft cardstock.  Cut newsprint paper slightly smaller and adhere to the front.  Cut a block of red dot paper and adhere to the lower left corner.  Cut a reverse scalloped border to a star paper strip, and adhere to the upper right.  Tie rope around the middle of the card, then accent the reverse scallop with an epoxy button & jewels.  Accent a snowflake ornament with a bow, glittered chipboard star and twine tied button.  Add a rope hanger and accent underneath it with bells.  Adhere the entire snowflake ornament to the left side of the card to finish.

Be sure to check out the regular designers for The Shabby Tea Room and see what they have created for the week!! 
I hope that you have a great day!! ♥♥♥

Until later,
~Lea L.
