December Verve Diva Inspiration Hop!


Welcome to Verve's December Diva Inspirations Hop.
It's the 5th of the month and that means it's time for the Divas to serve up some fresh inspiration with their Verve stamps! Leave some comment love along the hop spots for a chance to win a prize, then grab some stamps and play along with our December inspiration challenge for another chance to win!

This month's challenge is entitled O Christmas Tree:


Ribbons and sparkle and merry galore! Create a card inspired by the decorations of the season!

As you can see, I didn't stray too far from the inspiration photo for my card.  I loved the classic deep reds and greens in the photo.  I paper pieced the trees from Christmas in the Air into a winter scene of embossed snowflakes and snowy hills.  Going with classic here, I stamped the "Merry Christmas" sentiment on my snowy hill.  I adore the font of the sentiments from Holiday Treats.
