Second helpings!

It's been an age since I've made second helpings for a challenge - but 'tis the season, and I MIGHT be warming up my appetite for Thanksgiving dinner! tee hee.


If you look really closely, you'll spot my inspiration in the center-left
of this fabulous moodboard from JUGS#754...


Of course, it was the red ribbons and white packages that drew 
me in... but look again and you'll see I found a way to
add the 'puffy jacket' of the little girl, too!


This big Bowtied die from Sizzix hadn't gotten enough of a workout this year.
This one was mounted on a very old Neat and Tangled tag.


This time, instead of 'blending' the shadows, I cut this one from two
shades of red cardstock.  I love the CAS-ness of this one on a panel of white
edged with PTI's Elegant Edgers: Snowflakes then faux stitched onto my card base.

Both sentiments are from The Ton's Easy Expressions: Holiday set.

Okay, playtime is over... that laundry is calling my name and I'm late getting it started!

Oh what a gorgeous bow, Michele! I love how you've threaded it through the lacy overlay atop the puffy quilting on the first card! Then I saw the second card and my jaw dropped! Love that snowflake edger! Two more gorgeous Christmas cards, my friend!
