White Christmas



I'm dreaming of a white Christmas......and it's only the early part of October! In my opinion, there's nothing like Christmas Day covered with a white blanket of snow.
 
I wanted to make a white on white card and this is what I came up with. My base card measures 5 1/4 x 5 1/4". I embossed a slightly smaller layer with a Nellie Snellen Christmas Square-1 embossing folder and adhered it to the base. The tree was cut with Marianne Creatables Christmas Tree die, glitter added and popped onto the embossed layer with dimensionals. The little poinsettias, which I just love, were cut in red with Poppy Stamps Small Blooming Poinsettia die. A dot of Stickles was added to the centers and then the flowers were adhered to the tree. The sentiment was computer generated and then cut with a Spellbinders Ribbon Banners die and popped on.

I really love this card and I hope you like it too. Until next time, make it a wonderful day!

A very lovely card. The white on white with just a splash of red is very elegant.
