Retiring Soon…Post #3 –Oh Deer, Perfectly Pine, A Little Jingle….Christmas Cards

In my last couple of BLOG posts, I’ve been sharing items that are RETIRING on Dec 31, 2016 OR While Supplies Last!!

These items are some of "My Favorite Things" and I wanted to make sure you don’t miss out on these products, especially if they are a part of your wish list. Smile

As you may have heard, Close To My Heart's Holiday Expression "mini" book, will be ending on December 31, 2016. At CTMH, we have a NEW mini book that arrives every 4 months....so that means our NEW Seasonal Expression 1 "mini" book will be arriving on Jan 1, 2017.

So make sure to check your wish list, and make sure you have what you need from the Holiday Expression mini book prior to its retirement.

If you’ve missed the previous posts, you can find them at these links below…

Today, let’s take a look at this adorable card! This card was created by Jodi Hoover, and she was inspired to create this card from the card shown on page 44 of the Holiday Expressions mini-book.

Can you see that we used heat embossing on the golden bells? It’s amazing what a little extra embossing does to this card. Smile

The gold shimmer was our glitter paper, however – you could just as easily use our gold shimmer trim and cut it in half to get the same effect.

The PERFECTLY PINE stamp set is one of my absolute favorites in this book….here are a few more pieces of artwork created with this stamp set.

Thanks to all of my fellow consultants for sharing their beautiful artwork!! Smile
