It's Thursday and time for another StampinB challenge. This weeks challenge is hosted by Faith, a/k/a Markie's Mom, to make a card using a ribbon.
Since I'm freaking out about holiday cards already, I decided to make a Christmas card. I tried to make it somewhat simple so hopefully I can duplicate at least a couple of them with different dsp's.
My ribbon is the fold ribbon and the gold piece inside the poinsetta is a premade sparkly metal bow so I think that counts too - at least in my mind!
I used the SU Deck The Halls dsp, paired with cherry cobbler. I embossed the white panel, paper pierced it, heat embossed the greeting and popped up the main dsp panel on dimensionals.
Thanks for taking a look and if you want to join in this challenge, just click onto the StampinB on my signature line and be sure to put StampinB as one of your keywords.
PT: Only paper piercing today!

Very pretty Christmas card, Pamzi! I love the paper that you chose...works perfectly with the texture. Pretty poinsettia and piercing too. Nicely done!

This is simple yet stylish in a gorgeous kinda way. I love the embossing and that pretty ribbon bow. It looks so elegant and I love the font on the sentiment. Very pretty.

Yo Fruitflakezi! That's one purdy card. Purdy bare of punching that is. Thank goodness for the piercing! All jesting aside this is just lovely my Punchie Pal (or unPunchie Pal as the card would make it seem). Pretty paper, pretty bow, wonderful embossing, perfect piercing, beautiful embellishments. What the heck - you don't even need punches! Just send 'em to me! Hugziez!

I should really start getting on those Christmas cards myself, but I just don't feel in the 'mass produce' mood! I'm gearing up for my very first craft fair, and need to focus on that.
THis is one stunning Christmas card, Pamzi!
