Too Early for Christmas?


Ok, we're through with Halloween......and on the way to Thanksgiving. Then why am I showing a Christmas card??? Well, I always say - you just have to start early of this type of thing! I have alot of Christmas cards to make, so thought I'd get an early start. Actually, I should have started about 2 months ago..........


On this card, I used white and silver cardstock. I ran a piece of the white through the Cuddlebug using the snow flake embossing folder. Stamped the Christmas tree in Versamark and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder. Popped up the tree after framing in silver cardstock and added some red rhinestones. I used a little silver cording in the fold of the card, tied a bow, and - it's done!


I'll be posting again in a day or two. So until then.....


Thanks for stopping by........

Lynn. Clean and simple and... simply gorgeous. I love the way you framed the image and the embossed background in silver and then popped the tree in red. This is the best card I've seen with this set.
Thanks so much for sharing
