4 Days of Christmas with Paris Creativity- Day 4

on the forth day of Christmas Paris Creativity gave to me....

Hi Everyone and welcome back to my little corner of the blogosphere. Today I will be starting to decorate the house with Christmas decorations and the kids are super dooper excited about it. Having a 3 and 6 year old is so much fun at this time of year. Everything is exciting, from Christmas lights, to trees, presents and the big jolly man himself.

Today I've got a card set to share with you all. I created it using Paris Creativity goodies and at the local craft fair a few weekends ago, it went in a flash. The box is decked out in papers from the Flashes and Stars Paper Pad. These paper pads are some of my favorites. With the colors and patterned, you can't help but get into that girly spirit. The ribbon is a beautiful White Sheer Ruffled Edge available at Really Reasonable Ribbon and I just love how you can see the design of the papers beneath it. Yummo!!!


I love all the little bling pieces that are available from Paris Creativity. A little sparkle for every occasion I think. Now on to the cards. What girlfriend wouldn't love a swanky pair of shoes? Thought the die cut dimensional sticker from the Shopping Fever Theme pack was perfect for this one. The ribbon is tied in a Dior bow. Easy peasy. Just cut 4 strips of ribbon from short to long. Add the longest to your card front. With the second and third longest pieces, create loops. Stack together and take the shortest piece and wrap around the middle of the loops. I think this bow is my absolute favorite.


Next a shopaholic card. Bag, Boots and Sunglasses. Charge it please.


This third card was super simple. Just a few layers, some border punches, a sheer navy ribbon and some bling.

And lastly, a bunch of shopping boxes filled with wonderful goodies for a BFF. Jen if you are reading this, I've just sent you this card over the internet lol. I added a little more oomph to the boxes by using some bling and stickles. The ribbon is pleated using Helmar Quick Fix Adhesive runner. Just lay a strip and start pleating. Doesn't get any easier right?


The perfect box of girlfriend inspired cards for that very special friend.
