HOW will YOU be inspired this month — colors, theme, shapes, patterns?  I was inspired by the colors in the inspiration photo along with the tree shape and theme in this month’s gorgeous photo!  (CLICK on the photos for close up views):

This was a FUN card to make and it came together in a snap … a great card to make if you’re mass producing a bunch of cards, invitations or thank you notes!

I stamped the images on the white cardstock layer and then added sequins and bow!  Products used from the Paper Sweeties boutique:  Merry Little Christmas and Gold Sequins!

I also have a layout to share that I created inspired by this month’s board!

This LO literally took me 5 minutes to make – easy peesy!  I added my photos to look like the shape of a tree.  The trunk is a piece of scrap brown cardstock.  I punched a gold glitter star and then added some Gold Sequins, a die cut Joy word and several presents under the tree die cut using Stitched Tags #3 Sweet Cuts & Merry and Bright Patterned Paper!
