Holiday Mini Card Ideas

A few weeks ago I participated in a Demo Shoebox Swap. I got to make tons of cards using new stuff from the Holiday Mini (link on the side bar)! Over the next few days I will be going through those cards and highlighting some NEW products!!

I just LOVE this card. It's a very simple two color card: Basic Gray and Cherry Cobbler. Here is a list of the new items we used:
*Tags til Christmas stamp set (WM #120847 $30.95, CM #121169 $22.95)
*Extra-Large Punch; Decorative Label (#120907 $16.95)
*Embossing Folder: Northern Flurry (#120902 $7.95)
*Class Glitter: Silver (#120995 $3.95)
*Seam Binding: Cherry Cobbler (#120992 $6.95)

The base of this card is Basic Gray. A mat of Basic Gray (4" x 5.25") was embossed and then spritzed with Smooch Spritz. After this was done we inked the edges with a little Basic Gray ink so that it would stand out a little. Then we added a few pearl accents to the middle of the snowflakes!


The Glass Glitter was applied by using a Two-Way Glue Pen to draw a circle and then sprinkling it on top. It works GREAT!

This card was created by Shelly. Don't you just love it???

I DO luv it! I hadn't even tried gray with the cherry cobbler. They look terrific together! Nice work on the embellishments too!
