November - Happy Holidays Hop with Stampin' Friends

I LOVE the HOLIDAYS!  Once Halloween is passed and I know we're headed into Thanksgiving - Christmas and New Years - well I just get happy all over.  So today I am sharing my personal wish for you - that you will have a "SWEET SEASON"!  My card is made with elements from Stampin' Up!'s Candy Cane Christmas set - as well as the cute little gingerbread house that is fussy cut from the Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper.

These cards were just so fun to make - and I can't wait to sent them out to some special people before Christmas.  Just getting that envelope in the mail would be enough to make me smile.

To me the RED background on the CRUMB CAKE - just makes the entire card pop.  The red layer with the house is popped up on dimensionals and the peppermint candies were attached with glue dots.  And how about that beautiful Stitched Edge Real Red ribbon.  Plus a few sprinkles of pearls - like drops of white frosting.

And speaking of SWEET - here's a cute little matching treat.  Cello bags of nuggets wrapped in DSP from the same set of paper, tied and topped with a cute little Gingerbread House tag.

And on the back another special wish to the recipient.  Not get your creative juices going to make your own sweet treats. 

For lots more fun inspiration - be sure you continue on through this hop to see all the great ideas being shared.  And be sure to leave a comment with #SFNovHop for a chance at winning this month - the winner will receive a prize from each of the blog creators on this specific hop.  Thanks for checking us out  ~Maureen
