So exciting to feel creative and play with my hobbies in the evenings again!
This week the 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown Blog is having a Color Challenge - use Red, White and Kraft on your card. I love this color combination, so it was a lot of fun for me.
I went with an 'oldie but goodie' for this card and love how it turned out, even if the photo isn't worth a hoot! (maybe I'll take a new picture tomorrow during the daylight)
Anyway... I used the Cuttlebug Christmas Tree embossing folder, so this was a pretty fast card to make and is so pretty. The tree has Candy Cane Stickles sprinkled throughout for added sparkle. Cardstock is white, kraft and Regal Red - all from Stampin' Up - and I used pop dots on the red/white layer.
Deep Thoughts: "Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree! How richly God has decked thee!
Thanks so much for the sweet comment you left me. It is greatly appreciated. I think your card is really beautiful!
ReplyDeleteA lovely CAS card. The stickles bring the tree to life.
