Planning Ahead

I know you are probably thinking we are still waiting for Summer to arrive before thinking about Winter and I agree. Our Simply Stars Team is doing a Christmas/Winter card swap and I am playing around with different colour combinations, layouts and stamp sets. I discovered that the Boho Punch fits the snowflake stam in the Christmas Punch stamp set so I Stamped and punched some snowflakes and placed them inside the envelope before tieing the bow.
I am not sure if this is the card for the swap but I thought I would post it anyways to get you thinking ahead as well. You know, when I make sixteen cards, I get sixteen different ones back and so that will be a great start for my Christmas card list.
Recipe:
Stamps: Christmas Punch (Level 2 Hostess)
Paper: Lovely Lilac, Bashful Blue, Whisper White
Ink: Lovely Lilac, Silver, Dusty Durnago Stampin' Write Marker
Embellishments: Silver Brads, 1/2" circle punch, Bashful Blue Grosgrain Ribbon, Wide Oval Punch, Bitty Box and Envelope Die
I am so excited to see the ladies from our team who went to Convention and hear all about it. Our Simply Stars Team Leader/Upline Heather Summers made Founders Circle (Top 10 in Canada) and I am so proud of her. She has set goals for herself and worked extremely hard to earn this achievemnet. Congratulations Heather.
