My stash has tons of holly! Decisions! Decisions!
I used to have 2 beautiful holly bushes in my yard. My son always cursed when it was time to trim those picky babies. When he got a place of his own, my DH started doing the trimming. He trimmed them one year; the next year he chopped them down!

New Release: Finn's Bells

Finn is one of those people (or should I say penguins) who doesn't quite catch the spirit of Christmas... and don't we all know a few actual people like that?  Although he's not exactly rockin' it, at least he's made an effort!

Day 15 - Christmas Trees

Grab your favourite tree stamp, some ink and little embellishments and make yourself a forest of Christmas trees!  They are great fun to "decorate" and you can colour co-ordinate them to your friends' and family's tastes.
Don't have a tree stamp?  Don't worry!  Cut out some elongated triangles from green cardstock and adhere them to your card front.  They can be decorated in the same way as a stamped image.
 

 
YOUR TURN: Decorate a Christmas tree and use it on a holiday card.

Day 14 - Holly

I was amazed to look through my Christmas stamp collection and realise that almost half of them feature holly in some shape or form.  Like poinsettias, holly plants are synonymous with Christmas and are fabulous for decorating all sorts of holiday themed cards and projects.
 
 
YOUR TURN: Make a card or papercraft project that features holly.

Such a good idea, Ive always kept buttons, but never use them very often on my crafting, you've inspired me to make a Christmas card - thanks very much Beccy.

Day 13 - White on White

White on white cards rely on texture, rather than colour, to delineate the different elements of the design.  You can easily add texture with three dimensional embellishments, embossing and by layering cardstock, which will create shadows and depth to make the design more obvious.
 
 
YOUR TURN: Create a white on white holiday card.
