Day 25 - Baubles

Baubles are a popular motif for Christmas cards and there are countless ways of adding them to your creations.  I have seen bauble stamps, punches, dies and stickers as well as cards featuring baubles made from fabric, buttons, patterned paper, burlap, twine, rhinestones and glitter.  There are bauble stencils, embossing folders and masks as well as patterns for painting and drawing baubles.  Creative card artists make baubles from other stamps as well.  All it takes is a string, a little bow and a loop to turn your bird, car or horse stamp into a fabulous Christmas decoration.

Your coloring is great! love the shadow you created to match the card base. The faux stitching gives it that extra definition! Lovely card!

Now you've got me thinking. I have a little boy across the country who tells me that my cards are 'epic'. ( a compliment in kid talk) I bet he'd love ornaments using soccer, basketballs, football's,... Thanks for all the wonderful and challenging ideas you've been gifting us with this month. Hugs
