Our challenge was to make a card to do with a Christmas song, and I don't have too many to chose from, so thought of this idea, we were to use lots of bling too, and believe me I tried, hope its enough?....lol - hope this will make the grade girls? Thanks

Jan~ this is so beautiful, (and contains enough bling, lol)! I love this image and the journey it represents. I am so tickled to see you finally got the nestie you've been eyeing too! How wonderful that CB looks in silver. This was my mom's favorite song of all time- she sang it year round. Your card touches my heart. TFS Sister, lymi

This is just lovely! I was looking through the cards to get some inspiration for my Dad...getting ready to make his Christmas Card. Now...I'm side-tracked. I am going to have to try this because I have this exact folder and new metallic papers that I have not even used. Thank you so much for sharing.

Absolutely beautiful!!! I love the silver background! And the bling is perfect - too much would have ruined the spirit of this card! Wish this was showing up in my mailbox!!!!

So beautifully done. I like it a lot. Great colors with the perfect embossing folder and I like the branches. Glad you were able to join the TSC this week.
