Hi All,
I’m really starting to get into the Christmas card-making mood. I love using navy and silver – it’s such an elegant combination. I die cut several snowflakes and adhered them to the background. Another option is to just use a snowflake embossing folder. Here is a close-up:
Enjoy the video and have a great weekend!

Wow, this is completely stunning. I love white on white. So pretty and the embossing just pops off the Navy CS

I love, love the Snowflake background you created for this sweet Christmas Tree image Darlene, what a great idea, looks amazing.
And I’ve not see this micro glue dots anywhere but I’m getting a couple of boxes, I usually cut the regular size in half but it’s a bit complicated because the dot gets stuck on the scissors.
Anyway, this is a beautiful card, thank you for sharing.

Gorgeous!!! I really love the subtle texture on your snowflake background, and the silver embossing on the greeting is so elegant. I always add some liquid glue to the knot when I tie a bow–or even just a knot–for that precise reason. I use Perfect Paper Adhesive Matte, which is a good liquid glue. I prefer that over the Multi Medium because it’s thinner and easier to squeeze from a fine-tip applicator bottle. Anyway, just a tip if anyone is looking for a thinner glue. I do like the design of your card, Darlene. Simple but with a lot of impact, and no doubt where the focal point is. Thanks for sharing, and y’all have a wonderful weekend! The weather is supposed to be beautiful–Fall is finally here!!! 😺 ~ Andrea

I love everything about this card Darlene. I think I will be making “one or two” of these to send away. Thank you.
