Christmas Sunday

I managed to get a Christmas card done last night. Nothing special, but one more finished.

 I used a Cuttlebug border folder for the embossing. It's an oldie but goodie. I matted with a layer of navy. I sponged some navy ink around the side edges and added Star Dust Stickles to the snow. The sentiment is from Repeat Impressions. Edited to add: The embossing folder is no longer available. It's from a retired Cuttlebug border set called Winter Borders.

 This card is for the Christmas Card Challenge blog. The theme this week is shaped cards, but the main challenge is to just make a Christmas/holiday card.

 Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

    Hi, Quite a lovely and simple card.
    Beautiful. What is the name of the embossing folder. This card would be great for mass production. Thanks for sharing.

    Beautiful card, Lynette - love the white on white with the bold black contrast. Less is definitely more!

    Lovely to hear from you again, too! I've been out of the loop for so long! Please do tell me what I wrote that you found hard to understand - I'd hate to leave my readers confused! Glad you liked my latest Zentangle. You're right, I am really enjoying being so involved in designing things for our new house - not something I've done before!

    What a gorgeous looking Christmas card. It looks as though it might be easy enough to make lots of them. Hope all is well in your part of the world. :)
