Hello again, to all of my loyal and wunnerful peeps! :) Today, I have a little bit of Christmas for you... yep, I'm trying to actually reach my goal this month in the Paper Wings Christmas Card Club. I'm supposed to do 9 per month, which if I would do multiples of each design it wouldn't be a problem! :) I'm trying to see which ones are going to be easy to reproduce and mail, but then I keep adding stuff to them :)
Stamps: Ready Set Snow, Criss Cross (Hostess Level B)Paper: Scarlet & Ivory Ultrasmooth CS, Mulberry Meadow CS (retired)
Ink: Burnt Umber, Landscape, & L'Amore Red Palettes, Champagne Dazzle VersaMark
Other: Giga Square Scallop punch, misc. ribbons, jute trim, Frosted Lace Stickles, CutterBee Piercing tool, foam tape
Let me just say that the Dazzle VersaMarks (champagne & frost) are the SCHIZZ-NIT!! Same great watermark as before, but with just a hint of shimmery goodness. You totally can't see the effect in the photos, but trust me... you will want these bad boys!
I LOVE this jute trim I found at Hobby Lobby in the clearance section of the fabric department {yes, we all know how I love clearance sections :) }. It frays wonderfully easy and really gives some great texture to a card. One of the red knots are actually helping to hold the trim on... I did have to put down a bit of Crystal Laquer to hold the other end down securely.I think this has a vintage or homespun kinda feel to it...
What do you think?

Love your red and one green snowflake. The card is super - me likey!!
Love this card and the jute trim is a great touch.
You have such a wonderful way with textures! Loved the added embossing along the bottom. I have one of those new Versamark pads, and haven't even tried to ink it up yet! Shame on me, huh?
Another fabulous card. And kudos to you for working on Christmas cards already! rita w
Great find with that jute! Totally adds the homespun touch.
Wow, this is great. You are inspiring me to get going on Christmas, but I have no ideas. Thanks for giving me some!
This card is fabulous! The jute trim just works so well with this card!
