Merry Monday 109

DSCF3057

Happy Monday, everyone!  It’s time for another Merry Monday challenge, and Bonnie has a lovely inspiration for us today:

I went a quick and easy route today, letting this sweet vintage image from Crafty Secrets do all the work:

LeAnne Pugliese WeeInklings Merry Monday 109 Crafty Secrets Christmas Card

I printed the image out twice, trimming and mounting a full image on a piece of gold foil cardstock, then cutting out the larger poinsettia and popping it up on dimensionals.  I added a simple phrase from Christmas Sentiments by Sweet & Sassy, and although you can’t see it, there’s sparkle on the centers of each flower!

I mounted the gold panel on a piece of new Mossy Meadow and adhered it to a Very Vanilla card base, and I was able to add another card to my stash!  I hope the photo above inspires you to create a floral Christmas card, and that you’ll share it with us this week.  Be sure to stop by the Merry Monday blog to see all the fabulous creations made by the designers!

A box makes a perfect doll bed, don’t you think?
