Friends with Christmas Flair

*** This is my second post for today! Please check out my Paper Crafts magazine inspiration challenge, Part II, here. ***




I love this image from the October 2010 Kit of the Month, Take Time to Laugh. It's so versatile! For this card, I kept it simple, embossing it in silver, then watercolouring the sentiment and ornaments. What do you think of the non-traditional colours?

You've been busy! I love the non-traditional colors. The silver embossing looks fantastic (I clicked on the picture and then I could really see it). You make such awesome CAS cards, Lindsey!

I LOVE the non-traditional colours! I am digging them in general for Christmas this year. The watercolouring looks gorgeous with the silver embossing.

Angela said...

What, purple isn't a traditional Christmas color? ;)

The embossing is perfectly speck-free, just the way you like it. I like it, too!

Meg said...

Oh, so CAS and fancy! I'm actually enjoying the purple, I must admit.
