MY FIRST CHRISTMAS CARD FOR 2013


Recently a friend of my mother ordered some cards from me.  Once she received them she gave me a list of cards she would like me to make for her family members.  Three on the list were for Christmas.  I was eager to use the "Nativity" die I had purchased from Taylored Expressions. 

Mother's friend is a religious lady so I assumed this would be a design she might like.  It certainly makes a quick CAS card.  The "Christmas Blessings" from Hero Arts was stamped with VersaMark and then heat embossed with white powder.
 
I think the die cut will be beautiful on various colors of cards stock.  I may even cut it in gold paper and use gold embossing powder on the stamped design.
 
While I was at it, I made several like this so now I have a start on the many Christmas cards I need to make.  Thank you for taking the time to stop by!

What a great die, Vicki! I love it in white on blue, but you're right - gold would be stunning! I'm sure she will be very pleased with her cards.

What a beautiful card. The die really makes the card. I think silver would be pretty as well.

Two more cards using the "All About Autumn" retired dsp. Thank you for coming by today!
