Happy Thursday!!! It's hard to believe we are almost at the end of the year. Wow, the years fly by fast! I have a quick Christmas thank you card to share with you. I needed to make a simple card so I could mass produce these since I needed quite a few thank yous to send out for the Christmas gifts I received.
This is a standard 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 card. I cut the green mat at 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 and the white mat at 3 x 4 1/4 which was embossed with the snowflake folder by Darice.
I used core'dinations paper for the tree and used an embossing folder-Christmas tree by Darice and trimmed around it and layered it on my card. I sanded it lightly and added some pretty red bling to the tree and used Viva~yellow pearl pen for the star. I also added bow using SU grosgrain striped ribbon-real red. I also added a cute little Santa brad that I had in my stash and the sentiment is from TPC Studio-Greetings. I just realized this card was cricut-less....Wow, it's been a long time since I made a card without firing up my cricut. That seems strange!
I am going to enter this in a challenge at Docerela Creations ~Challenge #4~Holiday Thank You.
There is some time left to come join in. Come on...check it out:)
Thanks for stopping by,

This is so cute. I love that you embossed the tree. And the Santa brad is darling.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, I love the distressed look with your wonderful embossing :)
ReplyDeleteOooh... this may be 'simple,' but it is still bursting with all sorts of fabulous Sherrieness! (Hehe, I made you an adjective.) The embossing is gorgeous! Both types! The light sanding makes it look like a gentle snowfall atop the branches. The sparkly red accents are so pretty and I love the cheery ribbon and brad. Your loved ones will appreciate this so much. Beautiful work as always, my sweet friend!
ReplyDeletePS: Guess what? I finally have heart stick pins! I nearly burned a hole in my monitor from staring at yours so long and then happy danced when I finally found some near me! I thought of you instantly, then grabbed the pack as fast as I could. :o)
Hugs and blessings!
