Good Morning & Happy Hump Day Stamping Friends!

I am busy plugging away at my swaps for convention & today I'm sharing another Christmas one with you.  I can't begin to tell you how difficult it is to create a Xmas card without any designer paper to play with but I think I did an OK job here.  It was also very hard to photograph this card & I can NEVER seem to capture the shimmer either....it has a LOT of shimmer on it!!!  On a bright note, I'm very happy that I found the Merry Monday blog because their layouts are making my life/swaps extremely easy so thank you ladies!!!!!!

I'm working on my organized convention swaps right now & I thought I'd share another one with you today.  This swap calls for us to use bling~rhinestones, pearls, shimmer mist, etc. & since I absolutely LOVE adding shiny things to my cards; I figured it would be a cinch to get these done and packed away.  I did spritz the entire card with shimmer mist but it's so hard for me to capture that effect on my pictures....it is very sparkly in real life & I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else made.  ENJOY!!!
