Hope

 Hello, everyone!  It's time for a new challenge from the Creative Moments Challenge blog.  The theme is: Winter Blues.  We do not have a sponsor for this challenge, but there will be a prize of some crafty goodies!!

 Here is my card:
I'm still working on busting up my stash of sample commercial Christmas cards, so for this challenge I went looking for one with a lot of blue in it.  I die cut the image with a stitched rectangle die and matted it on silver before adding it to a dark blue card base.  The letter stickers have been hanging around since my oldest daughter was born (almost 19 years ago!!  I know this because I bought them to use on a scrapbook I thought I was going to make for her, ha, ha!!)  I've used a few of the letters recently, but unfortunately I don't have the correct letters to make many useful words.  "Hope" seemed to work for this Christmas scene.  The die cut snowflake border along the bottom was one of many that s sweet fellow crafter had sent to me many, many, many years ago!  I think I have two left, so I will work on trying to use them up as well.  I added two chrome rhinestones in the upper right corner, which finished of that sheet of gems!  I feel quite accomplished with this card.  😂

You have all month to play along.  So, get inky and link up your creation; I can't wait to see what you create!
