Quick Card & Quick Post
Several of you have asked me to share my plan for lessening stress around mailing Christmas cards next year. I will do that soon. I'm happy to say the last batch for this year is ready to go to the post office today. All I have left are the ones to hand deliver to the Vet & Groomer. I always take them some goodies & a card, so next task is to make the goodies!
Today I'm sharing a card for the very appropriate Impression Obsession Challenge, Quick Christmas Cards. This actually turned out to be one of my favorite cards. Clearly I am attracted to a look I call fresh & clean. The dry embossing is a Taylored Expressions folder, the printed paper is Lawn Fawn (just got that pad & had to use it!), the tree is IO DIE084-V & the sentiment is IO B3585. I did stack the tree 3 high & let the white layers show slightly.
Clear Wink of Stella gives the tree a beautiful shimmer. I'm also entering SSS National Christmas Card Day, Christmas Card Challenges, CCCB & HLS Anything Goes with Dies. Thanks so much for stopping by.

ReplyDeleteLove it! I'm not sure what I like better--that it is clean and simple or that the pine tree is plaid. It might be a toss up.
ReplyDeleteLove what you did with the background! The tree is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteYour plaid paper is perfect for the tree against the wonderful embossed BG. Beautiful card Greta!
ReplyDeleteGreta, love this simple tree in that fabulous plaid. The embossing just adds that lovely bit of extra fun. Keep warm and dry! Looking forward to your plan.
