Have you started working on Christmas cards?
I started earlier this year than I have in a long time (maybe ever), and it feels so good to have a selection of cards ready to mail. Still, I enjoy making Christmas cards, so I continue to make them from time to time.
The card that I'm sharing today has one of my favorite holiday color combos . . . Coastal Cabana, Real Red, and Whisper White, complete with sparkle and bling. Normally, I use Pool Party instead of Coastal Cabana, but either color keeps the card clean and makes the red pop.
Although I have new stamps and dies that I have barely used (or not used at all), this card features Into the Woods dies from last year, and "falala" is from the retired Seasonal Frame thinlits. I used the Winter Snow embossing folder on the Whisper White cardstock, and I wish it showed up better in the photo. The silver trim and sequins are also from the past, but I can't stop using either of them. I absolutely LOVE the silver trim and am so glad that I bought several spools of it, although my supply is dwindling. I think the way it curls adds so much to a project, and it's just festive.
Now that I'm ahead with my card-making, I really should start addressing and decorating envelopes. It will be wonderful when that gets done!
