For my project today, I made a Christmas card using blues, browns and greens, so definitely not typical Christmas colors but I really like the way it turned out! I've recently started using my Gypsy again and I'm in love all over again - I'm not sure why I stopped using it but now I can't make a project without it!! And in rediscovering my Gypsy, I've also paid more attention to Gypsy Wanderings and I'M IN LOVE with this cart - so many great cuts!!
I used the DCWV stack 'Holiday Collection: The Christmas Stack' for this card, as well as a Kraft cardstock base. The card base shape is a tag from Gypsy Wanderings that I welded together and both the word art and the reindeer also came from that cart. I used my i-rock and gems as well as American Crafts Ribbon.
Here's the lineup in case you get lost along the way - have fun hopping! :)

ReplyDeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteFantastic card, I love the colors & how well it works for Christmas!
I need to attempt to use my gypsy, it is a little intimidating for me. You really made me want to give it a try again, since I have wanted to use the Wanderings.
Thanks so much for sharing & for being in the hop:)
Wonderful card great job.
ReplyDeleteI am a follower of your, and love the work I have seen.

Kimberli,
ReplyDeleteWay to think out of the box on the colors for your card. They may be non-traditional, but the card still has Holiday Appeal! Love it! So honored to be in the hop with you!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! I don't own a Gypsy but I've heard that once you have one, you can't hardly create without it!! Glad you found your way back to yours!
