From Anniversary to Christmas

Check out the For Sale tab for some great deals.

 I really love the new PTI Transformation Tuesday challenges.  Hubby's anniversary card is still on the coffee table & I have another PTI Mix & Mat Plaid die cut from my friend, Cat. 
Original Card
Thought the same layout & products could be used for a Christmas card.  Amazing what a different look you get by changing the colors.  
New Card
I used the same Love die stacked 4 high, brushed with Wink of Stella & covered with Nuvo Glaze.  Again I used stickers for the companion sentiment.  The green glitter is paper that is hard to die cut, but makes a gorgeous sparkly layer. 
To step this card up a notch, I added a couple die cut leafy branches from Spruce & Sprigs stamped in Sweet Blush twice & embellished with white Nuvo Drops.  I also mounted the panel with fun foam since it's white on white.  Fun to use soft green & pink for a change instead of the traditional red & green.  I'm also entering HLS Anything Goes with Dies,  The Snippets Playground & WAW.

    Hi Greta! I'm back from vacation and thought I'd POP in to see what I've missed! Gorgeous cards as usual and I loved your other projects too... I really liked the gift bag! Have a great weekend! :)

    Another nice transformation, Greta! I love the glitter behind that plaid die cut! It's fun seeing non-traditional color combos this season.

    So interesting to see the different colours and how they change the mood of the card. I like them both, but as Shaz said, I really must use what I have before I buy any more dies!

    Your black and cream version was an elegant card but the new version is fun! The sparkly green behind the pretty die cut is playful and fun!
