Isn't this a delightful ribbon for the holidays? The card is one I created as part of a Make and Take at the Stampin' Up! Convention last month (an SU design, not mine). It's snazzy enough that I wanted to share 🙂
Convention offers so many interesting tips and ideas. I love the snipped out ornaments from the Tree Trimmings stamp set and the touch of bling from the Clear Circle Rhinestone Brad.

STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
Need to mass produce your holiday cards? Find a clean and classy card like this one. It has just enough glamour and pomp to showcase your homemade art but can be constructed easily (even the snipping is simple).- Popping up the ornaments on Stampin' Dimensionals takes the card from pretty to "wow!"
- A Stamp-A-Ma-Jig is a helpful friend for lining up the hanging cord and ornaments.
- The ornament on the envelope pulls the entire look together. Cool!

What a beautiful card! You are so talented! I visit your site each day for inspiration. I so look forward to stopping by each day to see what fabulous creation you have made!
Oh cute! Love the simplicity of this card!
What a great card! I need to make a bunch of Christmas cards, this may work! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
How cool SU had you design a make and take…did you design any of the others? I love this!
Hi Jolie:
A quick clarification . . . it’s not my design. It’s Stampin’ Up!’s . . . I merely stamped and assembled it as part of the Stampin’ Up! Make and Take at Convention 🙂 Hugs, Mary
Pretty! Love that big ribbon. Perfect touch to a simple, elegant card. Nice job as always!
Very beautiful, yet simple, Mary! This would be easy to make in large quantities. I did receive my Holiday Mini. Thanks so much!
OH. HOW. CUTE!!!
I love the ribbon, but then, I have an addiction…
Oooh, so pretty! Great Make and Take idea! Thanks so much for sharing!
What a fun card – sweet and simple! TFS!
Mary, I would love to be able to make cards like this! So clean and classy! Love it as always!
You do a beautiful job on all your work, but I would have to say this is one of my favorites…….patm
I hear you sistah . . . from a fellow addict. m

Hi Michelle:
FYI: I heard back from SU. I can continue my Mojo gig and you can continue to upload to the Mojo Contests. Because the link to the Mojo doesn’t go directly to the Verve store (merely a store button/banner is on the side), SU has the thumbs up. Same is true with anything related to SCS.
Thought you might like to know.
Hugs,
Mary
