I'm focusing on the BEAUTIFUL October kit of the month. Don't you just LOVE all the gorgeous stamps in the kit this month??? I can't wait to use each stamp in this set.

Oh Christmas Tree

I'm pretty sure this is my FAVORITE Christmas themed kit of the month EVER! And I'm so excited it is here in October. Just in time to get started on my cards for this year. Yep, I like to start early so I don't stress out or run out of time. I got together with some amazingly TALENTED crafty friends recently and I got busy with my KOM. I always get inspired working alongside my crafty friends. It is a fabulous day of fun.

Up first… this fun card. I have a variety of friends and some do not celebrate Christmas. I still LOVE to send them cards during the holidays and they appreciate receiving them. When I designed the wreath, I wanted to include sentiments that could be used for my non-Christmas friends. And so, this card was born. I just adore that little light bulb. It is absolutely darling. It is designed to fit inside the mason jar, but I love it used all by itself.

little-tip_leftto help line up the bulbs, I drew a pencil line that would be hidden by the popped up panel of paper. Then erased the line.

This is a more traditional Christmas card with a color twist. I love the addition of gray. I used Distress markers to color the wreath and berries at the same time and stamped all at once. You could also stamp it all in green and then use gems, enamel dots or Stickles to add a bit of red to the berries.

** COMMENT PRIZE **Don’t forget to leave a comment on all the participating blogs. We'll be giving away a fabulous Unity PRIZE to comments left on each of the blogs!!!

  9. I love how you did the Christmas lights card! The simplicity of your second is stunning and awesome.

  10. These are wonderful! I love the font of these sentiments and that second card is so sweet!

  14. I struggle too with cards to friends who don’t celebrate Christmas so love the first card and the sentiment. Love the color combinations you used on both cards.

  23. Fabulous cards! I love the bulbs lined up for a border (great tip too!) And the wreath is so simple and pretty! This is my favorite Christmas KOM too! Each design is so fun! I just love it!
