Happy Holidays!

Hello Everyone and Welcome to Sherrie Scraps with Passion!!

I hope you all had a awesome Thanksgiving and wonderful weekend!! Mine could not have been any better..... My kids were all home for the holidays which was awesome we could all be together. We also got to spend more time with our new baby Granddaughter, Arya. Life is grand!!!

Today is Monday and that means it's time for another Challenge Me Monday over at FCCB.  Please be sure to visit the wonderful Design Team and check out their projects for great inspiration! The challenge this week is to make a Holiday card:

My card base is 4 3/4 x 4 3/4, base layer is 4 5/8. I cut the tree from the Winter Frolic cartridge at 5" plus the layers. I embossed one of the tree's with the divine swirls folder to give it a little texture.



I added a little stickles to the stars just to add a little shimmer. The sentiment is from  My Creative Time -All Round Christmas set and the little frame is cut at 1" from the Once Upon a Princess cartridge.  Hope you come join us in the challenge:)

I am also entering this card in a challenge over at:
1.)Whimsical Designs ~Add texture
2.) Little Scrap Pieces-Copy Cat Friday ~Winter Holiday

Thanks for visiting,
Sherrie K
