We all know that red and green are Christmas colors but you don’t always have to stick with them. Sometimes you can use other colors just to be different. I made this Christmas card using Sweet Sugarplum and Smoky Slate. I think it looks a little elegant with these colors. Plus, to top it all off, I used a lot of sparkle on this card. It is hard to see in the picture but not only does the ribbon sparkle, but the scallops on the bottom are silver, the sleigh overlay is silver and the sequins added a bit more glitter to the card.
I used the Santa’s Sleigh stamp set along with the matching Thinlits (you can save 10% by purchasing them in a Bundle). The ribbon is the 3/8″ Glitter Ribbon Combo Pack in Sweet Sugarplum. You also get a roll in silver with this pack. The sequins are Fancy Frost Sequins. All of the products above are in the 2016 Holiday Catalog. Remember, this catalog ends on January 3rd. Last but not least, is the Fabulous Foil Designer Acetate on the bottom of the card. This acetate is silver on one side and gold on the other. I love it!

Beautiful card, Susan! I love those two colors together; you’re right – they are very elegant. (And they coordinate with your “closeout sale” banner colors!)
