O, Christmas Tree

Happy Friday!!  It's time for another challenge from Jo's Scrap Shack.  As always, we are now an Anything Goes challenge.  

This is our last challenge of the year, so make sure you play along!  Our sponsors this week are the fabulous Bugaboo Stamps

and Little Blue Button Stamps

Here is my first card using one of the adorable Little Blue Button Stamps images I received:

This is another card created with pieces from my bits and pieces stash.  The other day I had pulled a bunch of pieces out of it, mostly all purple, and decided to use some of them for this card.  The three pieces of purple ribbon on the right hand side (the darker pieces were actually one piece, but long enough to cut in half) and the embossed vellum piece were both from my stash.

My second card uses another image from the same Little Blue Button Stamps set:

I didn't use anything from my "bits and pieces" stash for this one, but I did use some patterned paper scraps.  Three of them were already cut to this width, I just had to trim off the lengths and cut a fourth to match the rest.  I added some Nuvo drops to dress it up a bit.
