MMTPT228 - for Marlene

Photo Details

Poster: etsdas

The TeaParty this week is for Marlene, mother of Gabby, gabalot. Marlene has had many, many surgeries and medical conditions, and is in need of a bit of cheer. In fact, this card is already on the way. Read more here: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...a-t565540.html
This card has little to do with the Silver Bells part of the challenge - but I think I escaped the back door, as there is no red or green!
I used my new Christmas tree embossing folder
(QuicKutz) for this, as well as Nesties circles and ovals. The trees are from an unidentified cube stamp I have had for a long time. I added some glitter. The sentiment is Hampton Art. In addition to blue and white CS, I used a bit of DCWV glitter cs, and embossed snowflakes on it. The ribbon is light blue.
My blog entry shows the challenges for this card.
