I just love blue..so the CC442 challenge was right up my alley!! I decided to make a blue Christmas card using these ornaments ( Fancy Ornament Die Set ) just released by ODBD on 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.
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.
Thanks for looking!!

Your ornaments are beautiful, Chris. The entire card is beautiful !! I like the use of the two embossing folders together and the way you got the silver in there. Just beautiful.
