Happy New Year and Belated Merry Chritmas!

Somehow I never got around to posting my Christmas card this year, so here it is now! I didn't feel overly stressed this year getting them done so not sure why I never scanned it!


I'm always a fan of purple, and with the success of our Kansas State Wildcat football team this year, I've been loving it even more! I decorated one of my Christmas trees in purple also!! So when it was time to work up the annual card, of course I reached for the purple! Elegant Eggplant to be exact. I really liked the card my Club girls did a while back with the snowflakes, see it here, so I went with something very similar. The card base is Basic Gray with a Whisper White accent layer behind the Elegant Eggplant background. The background was stamped with the Snowflake Soiree set in Whisper White, Elegant Eggplant, and Illuminate. I used the largest snowflake in Whisper White, the next size down in Eggplant, and the 3rd size down in Illuminate. Overlap in a collage type effect. Layer the Eggplant onto the Whisper White, then knot a Whisper White taffeta ribbon around. The Merry was stamped in Eggplant on Whisper White and punched with the Wide Oval punch. An Illuminate snowflake was stamped over the Merry before attaching over the ribbon with dimensionals. Pretty quick and easy really! I made over 95, starting at Thanksgiving, and didn't really feel stressed about them!!
