Country Christmas

This is pretty much a CASE of a card I saw recently in a online card class.  I used the same die and design but that's about it.  The die is from Simon Says Stamp and the patterned paper is from Paper Studio.  Mainly just some scraps I had left over from another project.  The card base is Kraft card stock.  It's a little different for me and almost to the point of being "busy", but it's another Christmas card completed.  I usually send my Christmas cards out the first week of December, but that's going to be hard to do this year I think.  I'm getting ready to shower you with Christmas cards!

I'll enter this in the challenges at Pixie's Crafty Workshop (snippets) Dies R Us (Christmas-Anything Goes).

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

  1. This is a very nice card. I love the muted colored mixed with the bright red. It all came together to make a super pretty card. I'll take the shower of Christmas cards. I need ideas, however I think I'll be sending out store bought cards this year. We'll see if I get enough energy to make even a few. Have a fantastic day.

  16. This is more layered for you, Lynn, but it is a scrumptious and gently layered rustic card which I love! Great way to use snippets, too! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family if I don't get back before then! Hugs, Darnell

  28. I am loving your country Christmas card Lynn! The papers are so pretty and how sweet that you were able to use up some snippets too. That is always a plus. Yes, a bit busy for you, but still very pretty! Yea, I'm not sure about getting those cards out the first week of Dec. I know it won't happen for me! Bring on the Christmas cards Lynn, I'm ready to see them! lol Hugs, Brenda

  30. Hi Lynn, the printed paper looks like vellum and I love the button and the die cut sentiment. Very different from your clean and classy cards but attractive none the less.

    Hope all is well,

    Monica with love

  39. This one is different styling for you, but I love it! That frame outline with the sentiment, around the patterns of the banner & your tree paper, and on top of the kraft base...it's gorgeous. You did GREAT! Bring on the Christmas cards! TFS
