I'll have a blue Christmas....

Hello friends!! By the time this posts, our family will be on our way from going to my nieces wedding. I can't believe how time flies and that I am now attending weddings for nieces and nephews. Thankfully I have more than a few more years to wait for my girls!!

Well with fall upon us and then Christmas right around the corner I know I have a lot of Christmas cards to make.

I just love blue..so the CC442 challenge at Splitcoast was right up my alley!! I decided to make a blue Christmas card using these ornaments ( Fancy Ornament Die Set ) just released by ODBD last Sunday and the sentiment from Holly Wreath . The sentiment is cut and mounted using the Antique labels and Borders Die .

The ornaments are cut from Tempting Turquoise, Pacific point and the closest color I had to Coastal Cabana. I am so loving these ornaments and I can foresee making many more cards with them!!

The embossed background uses a Spots (Cuttlebug) and a pine bough embossing folder (Sizzix). I scored a line between the two embossing folders and added silver cording on the ornaments.

Card Recipe:

Stamps: Holly Wreath from Odbd

Dies: ODBD Fancy Ornament Die Set, Antique labels and Borders Die

Accessories: silver cording, pine bough embossing folder (Sizzix), Cuttlebug Spots embossing folder

Thanks for stopping by!!

May God Bless you!!
