Inky Friends Inking Up the Season


Welcome to another fun blog hop from the Inky Friends! Our theme this time is Inking Up the Season, and each participant chose a set from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. My choice was the Christmas Quilt Suite, which has so many fun elements!

You may be starting here on my blog, or maybe you have landed here from Sharleen's blog, Stamp With Shar. Either way, just click the links at the bottom to move forward or backward on the tour.

For my first card, I chose the traditional red and green Christmas colors and a simple star quilt block.  I love the patterns in the Quilted Christmas DSP pack - it's so easy to "build" a quilt with it! If you look closely, you can see the stitching in the diamond shapes created by one of the dies in the Quilt Builder Framelits.



My next card is a cute CAS winter scene which uses the DSP again, as well as the fun Stitched Felt Embellishments. All I had to do was cut out some of the trees from the DSP and add some snow. The Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper makes great snow (and stars)!



Well, that's all from me today. Up next is Shelley, showcasing Wise Men From Afar!
