Here is my first creation with the collection, a card using the Christmas Sentiment Circles and Christmas Poinsettia Sets and the Frosty Blanket Paper Collection..


(Click on photo for a closer view)




I love this blue and burgandy color combination for Christmas!  I used pencils to color the flower and sentiment circle to match the papers and added Night of Navy Ink for the edges and for the branch image (Elegant Joy Set) on the designer paper mat.  This would be a fairly easy card to duplicate, which I might do for some of my Christmas Cards this year!

My next project is an ornament using the Banner & Tree Die!






This little ornament was easy to put together and I really like how it came out!  I used the designer papers to cut 5 of the trees with the die and glued the sides together with a string and a bell in the middle.  Then I just decorated it with a bow, a white snowflake using the die in the set and a little poinsettia flower done the same as the flower on the card.  Another fairly easy project to make a few of for Christmas Gifts!

I hope I have given you a little inspiration for Christmas using this new collection, I had so much fun making these!  Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beautiful creations by the designers this week!  So many awesome projects to look at!

I'm submitting this to the following Challenges:

    OH...LOL - I'm rolling on the floor. I just typed "Big jugs" instead of Big hugs, and then saw it and corrected it. Too funny to not share. I needed that laugh, how about you??!!!!
