I've been trying to use my designer paper stash for the past year without buying more. It's clearly been an addiction I needed to get a grip on as I have enough paper to supply a little store of my own! For today's card, I'm using SU! (r) Winter Frost dsp along with some Soft Sky and Bermuda Bay. The sentiment and snowflake die set is from Reasonable Craft Dies and I placed the snowflakes randomly along with assorted gemstones and bits. I know it's not the usual Christmas color combination, but I like it! It's an easy design to mass produce so I will most likely be making many different colors of this design for my Christmas card stash.
I'm entering this into the following challenges:
the March Rudolph Days Challenge - make a Christmas card
the Jingle Bells Friday Challenge - Holiday Cards to Die For (use dies)
Thanks for the visit, and I wish you a fantastic weekend!

Ha! I have the same issue with all my paper Carol, maybe we should open a little shop together. lol I am so in love with this card! I love the color combo too, it's beautiful. Love that sentiment strip and the way it curves like that. The snowflakes above it are perfect with it and I love the paper you used at the bottom. This one is a keeper for sure and I hope you make more. Hugs, Brenda
A very elegant card, Carol! LOVE how the pretty paper matches the sentiment border, great colours combo. Love the unusual colours, they make the card very elegant!! The snowflakes look so pretty mixed with the gems and the tiny diecuts!
I don't own too much paper, but I realize that I tend to not use the pads I have. I will try to use them more, thanks for the inspiration.
Biggest hugs ever and stay strong! Enjoy your days!
A gorgeous card and I love the sentiment die that you've used.

Yep, I've got some designer paper issues in my studio to ... lovely papers to use with it ... love the scattering of snowflakes. So glad you joined us with your to-die-for holiday card at Jingle Belles.
This card is so pretty, Carol. The papers are lovely and this is a very versatile design!
I think it would be regular mail as well so that is always good.
Thanks for taking part in the March Rudolph Days Challenge.
This is so pretty! I love all the snowflake die cuts. I need to follow your lead and stop buying paper too!! Have way more than i can use in this lifetime and yet i see pretty paper and it seems to just follow me home!
that beautiful curvy sentiment is the perfect way to divide this card, and i adore the color combination! so pleased you could join our diecutting fun at JINGLE BELLES! :)
