I'm now in full Christmas/Valentine card making mode to try and get a jump on those upcoming holidays. Today I have a Christmas card made with lots of snippets of SU! retired dsp. I matted everything on Cherry Cobbler red and Gumball Green, and used a vanilla card base. I die cut a Lawn Fawn stitched snowflake, adding a punched center done with a SU! mini punch, and added a Geo sparkler sticker to the center. The sentiment is by Katie & Co and was done in Cherry Cobbler ink. The punched border was done with a SU! fancy scalloped border punch.
I'm sharing this card over at Cards in Envy Christmas in July challenge as well as Pixie's Snippets Playground #186.
Thanks for stopping by and have yourself a great start of the week!
