Blue with Silver Christmas Card...

As I've said over and over I am red and green when it comes to Christmas, but after looking at Joann's beautiful Poinsettia card over at Crafty Nana's Blog I was inspired to create a blue with silver card.  Of course my card is nothing like hers, her card is so beautiful and elegant.   But after all when we use what we have on hand...who knows what we will end up with.   I had in mind to finally use some left over mini "electric blue", silver and white glittery bulbs that I have had for over 10 years now.  I'm not a hoarder, but I always thought these were too cute to part with.  I used to work with a gal who passed a cemetery each day on her way to and from work and she quite frequently mentioned how much she hated those "electric blue" flowers that people put out on their loved one's graves, but somehow this is quite different, I think.   For the design I used the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches and for the As You See It shallenge I added "something metallic, which is a piece of shiny silver paper.  It's a fun card and would work well for those "electric blue" enthusiasts in our lives!   Maybe I'll send it to my friend this coming Christmas!   Thanks for stopping by,   Kathy
