Now onto the Show….”The Jacksonville STARZ Blog Hop” is here…..Here is my Card Share and my Blog Candy!
I wanted to make a card that was simple to make but still had the WOW factor. 
 This is what I came up with using the set Christmas Blessings (123809).
I started with a Very Vanilla Base and matted it with Cherry Cobbler Card Stock.  Then on  a smaller layer of Very Vanilla I stamped the sentiment , using Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink Pad and sponged the edges with the same ink.  On a small piece of Vanilla I stamped my Holly image in Black Staz-On.  Using a small frame for the Window Frames Framelits (12921) I cut out the image.  I also cut 2 mats the same size from Cherry Cobbler to make a faux frame.  Using Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green Stampin' Write Markers to color the image. I matted it with the two frames of Cherry and adhered it to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.   I added a double bow (made with my Magic Bow Maker) from Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding.  
I hope you enjoy my card and the other great cards or projects you will see on the tour. 
Now for my Blog Candy...................
Just for leaving a comment on my blog you will be entered in a drawing for .....A multi color pack of 2010-2011 IN COLORS card stock and a spool of Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding ribbon.  I will announce a winner on Sunday afternoon.

I appreciate you stopping in, please continue on the tour to meet Donna Thames from Jacksonville, FL  Thyme to Stamp & Share

 Do one thing today that makes you happy!!!!!

      I have a bow maker that I bought years ago, but I never really took the time to figure it out. Sad, I know! Maybe I need to find it and try again :)

      Thanks for picking me to win the blog candy! I'm very excited! I just got the matching dsp from the clearance rack, but then realized that I have very little of the card stock left (I'm talking scraps). This is perfect!
