Nothing, that is, until I remembered a paper embroidery pattern I had.

Hark! Hear the Bells
Merry Monday's challenge this week is to use bells on our cards. I know I have little jingle bells somewhere but I'm not a fan of putting that much bulk onto my cards. That left me with.... well, nothing.
Then, ta da! This card was born. It was totally fun to make. I haven't done paper embroidery for at least half a decade or more so extra kudos to Merry Monday for keeping me on task for Christmas cards and for getting me to revisit old techniques.
The Fine Print: I got nothing for you. I got this particular paper embroidery pattern from a class I took but I'm quite sure I saw it in a paper embroidery book once too. The paper, ribbon, and greeting sticker is all from my stash.

WOW! I'm scrolling through your posts (No, I won't be commenting on each one, sorry!), but had to stop and sigh over this one. I've never tried this, and it's just dang gorgeous, PJ. I'm so glad you found the pattern (or remembered the pattern, or whatever it was that inspired this one!). TFS
