On the 10th Day of Christmas...

...my true love brought to me: FLOWERS!!! Glorious, beautiful, exquisitely hand-made, like only Prima can do...FLOWERS!!!! They are the crowning glory to any project...layouts, cards, tags, home decor, altered art, planners, and anything else your mind can come up with. A flower made by Prima will kick all of your projects up a notch!

"I have two memories of Christmas decorations from my childhood. The other is a Santa Claus shaped statue my mom always lifted up the table when December started. And I didn’t like it at all, I thought it looked a bit scary even." ~ Riikka Kovasin

"And the other is a music box style hanging ornament my grandparents had. When you pulled the thread underneath the ornament played “Silent Night”. It was a huge red, metallic ball so when I started to create this ornament, I had that in mind. Instead of making a glittery or shiny ball, I covered a Styrofoam ball with blooms!"

“Happy 10th Day of Christmas! For my tag today, I wanted to create a chilly, wintery, magical tag using very soft and subtle colors. I began with a tag cut from cardboard, with the top layer stripped to reveal the inner core, and then coated with Frost Color Bloom Spray. I then selected an image from the Debutante collection. I fell in love with this Victorian lady, all bundled up for winter. After I cut out the image, I coated the outer edges with Sterling Glass Glitter. Before adhering it to the card, I attached Memory Hardware trim and crystals at the bottom of my tag." ~ Melissa Phillips

"Next came layering on beautiful Prima flowers, with leaves in white and silver and small beige flowers from A Victorian Christmas collection, sweet lavender berries from Royal Menagerie, and kraft flowers coated in Frost Spray Mist. I added a stamped tag, using the clear stamps from A Victorian Christmas. After everything was in place, I added a spritz or two of Chrome Spray Mist to age and antique the entire tag.”

"I love the traditional colors of Christmas and that is what inspired me to create this card. I used metal embellishments to anchor my design. The addition of this element adds interest and an unexpected texture to the card base. I layered gorgeous flowers to serve as the focal point of the card design. I added snowflake paste to the smaller flowers to create a snow-kissed effect. I finished my design my added a wood icon sentiment and liquid pearls." ~ Robin Shakoor
