PTI December Blog Hop - Leftovers

What a fun blog hop this was...and so easy too! I was lucky enough to get some homemade caramels from Joyce, Cards-by-the-Sea and the packaging was just so adorable and made for the perfect leftover card. I used the PTI snow bank dies with just a touch of Martha Stewart glitter to match and there you have it, a fun and festive card!  What I really like about this card is that after I stamped the sentiment and then added glitter to the edge of the snow, I did not realize that ink had not dried so the top portion of Holly Jolly Holiday has just a smidgen of glitter too.  Now had I planned that it would have never happened.  I love when these kinds of fun things happen to my cards.  Joyce, thank you so much for the leftovers too!

    Such a lovely card and don't you like it when things go 'wrong' and turn out fabulous.

    Oh this is so cute. I reused my box and adorable tag from Joyce too. I refilled the box with store bought candy and gave it to my granddaughter. It was just too cute not to use again. Love the card you made with it.

    I'm so pleased you used my leftover packaging for your card. I love that snowman, and now he will live forever! You did such a great job of turning a tag into a card. I love the glitter and the In the Meadow dies.

    Love how you used Joy'ce snowflake on your card with the glittery snowbanks. What a nice accident for the sentiment. I know what you mean about planning it & not happening. LOL
