Here is the card I sent to the Family and Friends on our Christmas list this year. We pared it down a little, but I still made 90 cards!! I tried hard to keep it simple so it didn't become overly stressful. I like it and think it's been well received!!
I decided there isn't enough purple in my life so I wanted to work that in somehow. Then I saw this tree stamp that I bought last year when the new catalog came out and still hadn't used. Grab the color coach, and here we go!! The card base is Concord Crush with an accent layer of Lucky Limeade underneath Shimmery White. The Shimmery White was textured in the Big Shot using the Snowburst embossing folder and craft frame to leave the oval in the center unembossed. The saying is from a different set, but we wanted Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays. The tree was stamped in Lucky Limeade and ornaments added in Concord Crush and Daffodil Delight. One Rhinestone as added at the top for just a little bling :)
Below are links to all of my previous Christmas cards. I love taking a look back at them. Usually, I'm cussing them before actually getting them in the mail, but I still like them all!
Merry Christmas all!!
