My CC384 Color Combo Christmas Card using Cherry Cobbler, Gumball Green and Very Vanilla.
This was such an easy card using the new SU Holiday Frame EB Folder that I cut out and then painted with Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint. Very pretty IRL.
BTW, the folder and stamp set are from the new SU Holiday mini, which you can order from starting Aug. 1st.
I kept this card CAS for easy mailing. Enjoy and thanks Mary for helping us add to our Christmas stash.
P.S. I just noticed I flipped the frame. There is actually a tiny tree at the top that is upside down and should be at the bottom right side up that would be fun to color in the future :-)

Very nice! Didn't look upsidedown to me, I saw a face and body at the top and thought of a snowman although not the same shape, its still a charming and elegant card.

This is just so elegant. I imagine the shimmer paint makes it even more so IRL. I can see the upside down tree that you are talking about, but I think it was a "happy accident" on your part, because it shows that you can use the embossing folder/frame for things other than Christmas and it won't look out of place! Makes it more versatile. Love your little bow at the top of the sentiment oval. Also like the stamped border on the sentiment oval. Lovely Christmas card. You always make things look so easy--yet it takes such creativity and talent to come up with the design.
