Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

August 16, 2015

International Ambassadors Informal Blog Hop

Hi Everybody,

This is the seventh International Ambassadors Blog Hop and for this month we have chosen Christmas in August as our theme.

It's never too early to start making cards for the jolly season especially if you have lots to make.

So we thought that we would share some of our ideas from around the world so that you can see our different styles.

We love that you hop along with us and it is even better when you leave us a comment.

Take a look at some of the other Ambassadors designs ...

Linda Lucas Australia
Christine Emberson UK 
Yvonne van de Grijp Netherlands
Christina Griffiths (You are here)

For my card I have used the Lattice Ornaments  from the 2015 Christmas Collection and cut them in gold and wine red.

I have added in gold ribbon and twisted some gold wire to sit behind the ornaments.The pearls flourish is called Finesse from Want2Scrap  and I have cut it up into the pieces that I needed.

I hope you enjoy this hop and please look out for the next one.  Thanks for joining in and also for the support you show to me and my blog

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
