Hanukkah Fun!!

Hey Everybody!!! My dear friend, Ruby commissioned me to make her some Hanukkah cards for a few friends of hers! I was SOOO excited, and accepted with delight. I was happy to do this because the challenge of making a Hanukkah card seemed like fun, and also it was the first time anyone had actually commissioned me to design something for them!!  I was so thrilled to do this that I finished them both over the course of two days, which with teaching and design team duties, submission and holiday gift making is almost impossible.

So, the first card is a graphic and clean design. I used my Martha
Stewart Scoring Board to create a frame around the candles that I fussy-cut from
a chandelier stamp. (I showed this finished card to my hubby, and
he asked, "Don't menorah's have eight candles?" Haha, no.)
 The glitter is applied to scored strips of Scor-tape! I LOVE
this technique!
 The next card is a vintage Shabby-chic style. Is that even Hanakkuh? 
Who cares? I loved it! My friend loved it, it's all good
 Love the blue and gray, so I used a silver doily and some
Waltzingmouse Stamps
The sentiments is from Papertrey Ink
I added some crocheted trim, eyelet lace, vintage buttons and
a dimensional corrugated table from Pink Paislee's Anthology collection
Add a little bling for a soft, romantic feel

  Hope you enjoy!! Loved making these, I'd be happy to make more for you!
