Hello and welcome back! Here's another card for today:
This design was inspired by the challenges at Color Throwdown and Freshly Made Sketches.
I created this as a birthday card but it could just as easily be a Christmas card if you change the sentiment. The pine branches were cut from the large die in Christmas Pinecones and the holly leaves were fussy cut. I stamped a couple of pine branches on the white card before embossing it with the Softly Falling embossing folder. There is a bit of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper at the bottom but it didn't photograph very well. It has a lovely shine to it in person.
Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
