November Team Blog Hop - Florals

The Pineapple Paper Artists are abloom 

with some flowery artwork 

to inspire your next creative project! 

Welcome from MARTHA'S BLOG,

or begin your garden tour here 

with my floral Christmas card!

I relied on the beautiful piece of B&T Duos paper 

from the Yuletide Carol paper packet

as a backdrop for this card, 

and cut the New England Ivy filigree strip 

from the reverse side of the paper, 

applying it along the left side of the card.

I then used the rosy zip strip cut from the paper 

to create two little flag strips in the bottom left corner
