Seasons in Motion for November Joyful Stars Blog Hop

 Welcome back to another Joyful Stars Blog Hop! We are a group of Close to My Heart consultants who share something each month on the 9th and at 9PM EST. If you are coming from Joyce Gough's blog you are on the right track. (The complete lineup is on Joyce's blog in case you get lost.) Have fun being inspired! 

Close to my Heart has another promotion that features animated cards.  They are so much fun to make!  This time the Seasons in Motion bundle contains dies to create the animated window and focal panel insert.  

Card #1:

 

Colors used:  Blue Belle and Bluebird.  I'm entering this card into the Heart2Heart Blue Belle challenge, and Dream Valley challenges to use Dies.

I loved the scalloped edge of the panel so I made another card and I covered up the animation window with a 3" x 3" image from a few years ago just to give you an idea of how else this thin cut die could be used.

Card #2:

The colors used are Ruby and Evergreen.  The woodgrain background is from Spruced Up Paper.  I'm entering this card into the Try it on Tuesday Traditional Christmas colors.

Here is the Seasons in Motion Bundle:  (some elements can be purchased separately)

Now it's time to head over to Joyce Houck's blog --I'm sure you'll be inspired by what she has to share.

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!
