A White Christmas



I really should start making some other cards besides Christmas! I needed a Birthday card the other day, and realized I didn't have many to choose from. BUT I have a ton of Christmas cards!!

That is no surprise,though as they are my favorite. The first thing I go to in a store is the holiday stamps and dies.

For this card I used Dee's tree dies, they are actually from a friend of mine. I think they are so pretty, and wanted them as the focus of the card. I just added a snippet of retired SU designer paper behind them. The sentiment is from Craft Lounge White Christmas, stamped in black. I added a few sequins, and there you have it..a clean and simple Christmas card!

I'm entering this at Pixie's Snippets Playground

and also at Sparkle Creations challenge.

Have a great day!

Laurie, this is a lovely die & you've used it so well. Like the soft blue border behind this snowy tree. Good for you on having a good supply of Christmas cards. I'm a die addict also. TFS & Hugs
