Peace On Earth

Wow!  Is it Thursday already?  The week is just flying by! I've got so much to do before tomorrow's release my brain can't even process it all!  LOL  So, let's just get on with the eye candy!  :)  Today the Divas are shining their spotlights on the new set Glad Tidings.

For my card, I was inspired by the new Webster's Pages Sweet Season paper that was waiting for me when I got home.  I embossed the Glad Tidings snowflake tag directly onto the patterned paper in white, then embossed the Peace on Earth sentiment as well.  Next up, I cut a couple other sheets from the same collection, added a little stitching and some distressing, then layered it together and laid down some cherry cobbler seam binding ribbon in a ruffle down the length of the card.  I added a little bow for my tag, then finished off with some shiny gold pearls and a gold rimmed red rimstone, both from Pizzazz Aplenty.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  If you've already been hopping, I hope you had a blast on today's hop!  If not, be sure to check out the Diva posts below for some uber gorgeousness with the new Glad Tidings set!  As with all our hops this week, one random commenter from one of the blogs will receive today's featured stamps!  Hooray!
