My CC351 and CAS146 combined challenge Christmas card. I would never have used this color combo (Kraft/Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz and White) normally for a Christmas card, but I really like how it turned out. Very soft color combo and I just added sparkle with Dazzling Diamonds and rhinestones for a bit of Pizzazz...no pun intended :-)
I have been challenging myself to use all my older Christmas stamp sets as well as new sets. It has been fun!
Enjoy and Thanks for looking.....

I think what adds pizzazz to your card is the way you used the green ribbon and twine around your main image. It draws your attention and focus to the image, while the image itself remains muted and vintage-looking. I also like the white sponging around the edges of the card. It gives the whole card a kind of frosty, winter feel.

Absolutely fantastic card Nancy! I love everything about it, but especially the sweet sentiment highlighted with the row of rhinestones. Nicely crafted!

Frosty beauty - I don't remember this stamp set but I love it (are you sure it is still in the catty?). Wonderful card Nancy.
