Lori Whitlock Blog Hop + Giveaway


Welcome to Artsy Albums and your next stop on Lori Whitlock's Christmas Card Blog Hop!  If you're starting here, be sure to head over to Lori's site to start from the beginning!  You won't want to miss the cute card ideas at each stop!
Be sure to come back ... I have a GIVEAWAY that you won't want to miss :)
For my cards, I'm sharing a few of Lori's adorable Christmas designs. 

I just LOVE this adorable Santa.  He is actually a treat bag topper... but that's the wonderful thing about your Silhouette, you can create so many different things with just one design :)

  Lori's Santa file comes with cuts for the hat pom pom and holly berries, but I decided to add some texture and shine to my card with a small cotton ball and some red bling.  His eyes are also tiny dark blue gems.

 For the sentiment, I used a 'print and cut' label and offset it with dark green card stock.  Although I didn't get a picture of the inside, this green card folds open to reveal a great spot for a Christmas photo -- and Lori already has the photo slots designed into the file -- so easy!

For my second card, I used Lori's cute card design, along with paper and stickers she designed for Echo Park's Reflections Christmas collection.  I also added some more bling, a few cute red buttons, twine.  This one is a fun layered design and would be easy to create in multiples!

    Beautiful cards. Love how much of a difference adding the pom pom to Santa's hat and the buttons to the holly can make.

    these are both great cards without too much thickness so are good for mailing. I especially like the creative cut on the 2nd card...adds just the right amount of interest and pizzazz....would be great for multiples!
