Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

DSC01398

I love Christmas cards.  I love making them and I love getting them especially when they are homemade.  If you haven’t started your cards after my Twelve Days of Christmas Series I did November 1st – 12th, then you need to get moving (yes, I am bossy!).  Just in case you need another idea, here is a card using the stamp called Merry Little Christmas.   I stamped the background using the snowflakes from Festive Flurry in Illuminate Ink.  I love that ink for snowflakes because it gives them a little shine.  The shape on the top of the card was cut out in Marina Mist and Silver Glimmer Paper using a Big Shot die called Oval Accent Bigz Clear.  If you cut it exactly in half you can make two cards with this design.  I topped off the card with a Frosted Finishes Embellishment.  These are so beautiful in person and is hard to capture in a picture.  They just sparkle and shine when the light hits them.
