CSS Inspiration Hop

Hi everyone!!  I'm excited to be participating in another great CSS blog hop but sad also as this is our final formal group hop.  I've had such a wonderful time with this amazingly talented group!!  Not only are these girls talented but they are all so sweet, caring and great friends!!
You should have arrived from Linda's amazing blog.  If not, be sure to head over to Stamp TV to start at the beginning, you don't want to miss a thing!!
We had a gorgeous inspiration photo and this idea came to me immediately.  Though initially I was going to have the tree from Joyful Holiday be silver, I wanted to use this ribbon so I went with a gold tree.  I heat embossed and added several different colored gems.
Make sure to leave a comment along the way because we will choose a random comment and that stamper will win a grab bag of Gina K Designs products!  Look for the announcement on Tuesday December 24th!
Thanks so much for hopping along with us through the years, it has meant so much!!
Next on the hop is Melissa!

    Lori, this is stunning. I love the blue bg, it picks up the inspiration photo perfectly and sets the focal image perfectly. The touch of sequins is perfect.

    You really captured the colors of the challenge and those little gems on the tree are a cute, cute touch. Oh and the bow? Wish I could tie bows like that!
