We Three Wreaths

I always show my hubby the cards I have made that day when he arrives home from work. Sometimes I will put them up on my bulletin board and have him guess which ones are new. He's very good and usually always guesses right. As I have mentioned before, he is also where I turn to when I can't think of what I need to fix on a card. He gives great constructive criticism. That is why I was nearly floored when he told me he didn't like this card. I think it's the first time he has said that. He's getting way too comfortable with me....hehehe. I guess that is why we are about to celebrate our 22nd anniversary. :-)
The card opens to a strip of DP along the inside bottom edge. You can barely see it here, but it reads "It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas". The front panel is cut a little shorter so you can read this strip.


















I still like the card even though he doesn't. He said it was too busy because of the white fibers. I cut off a good portion of the "fluff" after he advised me. He may like it more now. The card was inspired by a couple of challenges. This one from Papertake Weekly Challenges was to use 3 images on your card. I used three wreaths! And this one from Raissa Stamps to use your punches creatively. My card qualifies for both. I love multitasking. (I hate the phrase killing two birds with one stone.... but that's what I did here.)
I used four different punches for my card. The large Marvy scalloped circle, the small Martha Stewart 1" scalloped circle, the Paper Shaper bulb and the Stampin Up Snowflake (middle makes the asterisk looking piece).

I took a picture of my stamp room, but decided it was way too embarrassing to show the world. But, I plan on cleaning it today and making quick work of my to-do list. We have furniture being delivered today for our spare bedroom. Our kids need a place to sleep when they come to visit in 23 DAYS!!! And I want to get my Christmas decorations out. So, that means I have cleaning to do. I love to decorate a clean house!
Don't forget to email me if you are interested in having a weight loss buddy. It's only a one month commitment! It just may be what you need to get you through the holidays without over indulging.
Have a great day, friends!
