so it sounds like fun, right? i agree :D right now i'm actually enjoying a weekend of scrapbooking in Seattle... fun stuff, and i'm actually being productive too!
anywho, on to the blog hop card i made. this one features a non-traditional take on Christmas, but i love this DeNami stamp and glitter :D
you all know the Bing Crosby song, Meli Kalikimaka? yeah... that song is one of my favorites of the season, and truth be told, i've actually been playing Christmas music for a long time. now, i'm not usually one of those 'forget Thanksgiving people' and move to Christmas, but this year, even though i'm not forgetting Thanksgiving, i am really excited for Christmas. like, a LOT.
the above is a close-up... the rhinestones (love 'em!) are from my stash, and the letter stickers are from Making Memories that complete the sentiment. i love that hibiscus flower stamp... seriously so fun and cute, so i shaded it and glittered the center.
hope you have fun checking out the rest of the ladies along the hop--they have some seriously awesome projects to share.
next on your stop is Angela! you'll totally want to see what she cooked up for the Christmas blog hop!
have fun, and thanks for stopping by! :D

Thank you for sharing your clever and different card. It's a great way to use a stamp in a non traditional way and that's my favorite thing about these hops - seeing creative ideas of others.
Thank you for sharing your art.
Your bright and cheery card had me singing, "Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say on a bright Hawaiian Christmas day...". Such a great card - tfs!
