Have you started to think about your Christmas cards yet??? We've had one Christmas Card Class so far - two more to go! - and this is probably my favorite from that class. The colors are So Saffron and Night of Navy. The window and "Very Merry Christmas" are from WINDOW DRESSING, a Level 3 Hostess Set. The tree is from LOVELY AS A TREE, and the inside verse - "Warmest greetings of the season and every good wish for the coming year" - is from MANY MERRY MESSAGES.
We embossed the window and outside saying with white embossing powder, then cut out the window pieces. There's a piece of acetate there, to act as window glass. The "snow" is embossed with Irridescent Ice. The tree is stamped on the So Saffrong, and we used the end of a paintbrush to make the ornaments/lights, and embossed them with Irridescent Ice, too. The card front is attached directly to the So Saffron.
I think it's a beautiful card. :D What do you think???
I agree, Lori, it's a beautifully simple card!
ReplyDeleteThis is super cute! Love the tree through the window :)
ReplyDeleteActually, Lori, I HAVE been thinking about Christmas cards! Call me crazy, but I suddenly have the urge to try and make some. Sarah and I had a bunch of coupons for JoAnn's, so she used two, and I used the rest to buy some new embossing folders for my Cuttlebug, several of which would be good for Christmas cards. We'll see!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this card! I'm going to have to earn that level 3 stamp set!
ReplyDeleteWe always have our Christmas tree in our front window every year. This would be a wonderful personalized card from our home!
Love it!
Thank you for the great inspiration!
