{SS} Holiday Blog Hop

Welcome to the SweetStamps.com Sweeties Holiday Blog Hop!!!
With the Holidays right around the corner we thought it would be fun to share some lovely Holiday inspiration with you! 
You should have started at the SweetStamps Blog wnd it would have lead you to me, since I am first in line!!!  :) The Sweet Stamps Blog will have a list of all the DT's in todays hop, just in case you get lost along the way!  :) 

Be sure to leave comments along the way for your chance at winning! We will randomly choose one winner from all the comments left! 
For my card today I used: Poinsettia Garland.  The original stamp only have 3 Poinsettia Flowers, so to create this wreath I stamped the image 4 times and embossed with detailed white embossing power.  The image was stamped twice on the base of the card (right and left) which left a gap on the top and bottom of the wreath.  I colored and did some fussy cutting on just the larger flower in the group.  I placed the two additional poinsettias down and TAD DAH!!!  I was extremely delighted with the finished product. I also added Piccolo Enamel Gel in the center.
Thanks for stopping by! Your next stop in the hop is the very talented: 
Denise
We hope you are inspired all along the way!

    I love your card! The chalkboard effect seems to be the style this year even with wrapping paper! I'm hoping to get some inspiration from this hop so I can get on the ball with my cards this afternoon!

    Pretty poinsettia wreath. It really 'shines' on the black background.
