The Merry Monday Christmas Challenge has provided me the opportunity to make so many cards for Christmas. I have really enjoyed all the challenges and I am so thankful that my stack of cards is growing and there are still a few more weeks to play along!
--This card did not photograph well. I tried outside and inside. I am sorry the colors do not do the card justice. I used clear embossing powder on the pine needles and Wink of Stella. They glisten so beautifully and the silver bells from the foil are so bright and merry. I hope you can see this when you view my card. -- Feeling frustrated---
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I love to hear from you, so please leave a comment if you have a minute!
If you have any questions on my card or Stampin' Up! contact me at: Claire.
Stay warm!
Happy Stampin!

The green striped paper was found in my stash.
I've looked and looked at that ornamental pine stamp and I'm still temped to buy! Love this!

DeleteThis is a beautiful Christmas card, Claire! Glad to know I'm not the only one who gets frustrated when I can't get a good pic of one of my cards, although this card seems to have turned out perfectly from my viewpoint. :)

DeleteClaire - I think it's gorgeous! I know how disappointing a photo can sometimes be. If I love it this much now, I can't imagine how much I'd love it if it were in my hands. :) I love the combination of images with this paper. Thanks for playing along with this week's Merry Monday challenge.
