Christmas Blessings 15

Mona Pendleton | Tuesday, November 7, 2017 @ 7:53 PM | Christmas , Papertrey Ink , PTI

Hi there! Today I'm joining along with the PTI Make It Monday challenge where the challenge is to create a Holiday Photo Card. I made a holiday photo card featuring a photo of sweet Connor that was taken years ago that I had on hand :)

To create this card, I applied ink to an embossing folder then ran it through the die cutting machine. I framed Connor with a die cut kraft photo frame then embellished with a little blossom from Brilliant Baubles stamp set combined with a heat embossed sentiment from the Signature Christmas stamp set:

For color inspiration, I'm joining along with the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)
