Something Different + CTMH Class 12/15/15

Today I thought I'd show you something other than a Christmas card.  This headband was perfect to wear to the Red Hat card class I taught during my birthday month.

I started out with a plain silver CTMH headband and followed 2 tutorials, one to make the flower and one to cover the headband.   In the center of that purple satin ribbon flower is a glittery red button and white pearl.

Yesterday's class was the last one for this year.  

Here are 3 of the 4 cards our little group made:

I had a little problem with the 4th card and decided I would finish it when I got home.  We stamped the tree image on a 5.25 x 4 " piece of white cs at Joyce's and then added the background color with daubers and sponges.  I just didn't like how mine turned out and, without going any further with the card, decided to bring it home and die cut the center section with the tree and make my card altogether different...

I still need a few Christmas cards for guys and this one will be perfect.
