Merriest Christmas


I love using Blues for Christmas, so I was playing around today and came up with a card I really love. This just may have to be my Christmas Card this year. It is really much prettier in person. 

I used the pine tree from the CTMH  "Always Grateful" Stamp Set.  The Sentiment is from the Merriest Christmas Stamp Set. The only color I used was Pacifica paper and ink

I used a snowflake embossing folder for the background and Crystal Glitter on the trees for just a little sparkle. After all, what is Christmas with out sparkle and shine!!!


The inspiration for this card started with a sketch from Freshly Made.
