Hi peeps! I am posting another card today so I can make the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown deadline! Here's their prompt:
Brown isn't a normal color that I associate with Christmas so I decided to rise to the challenge:
I heat-embossed this Unity image on a piece of Kraft cardstock, then sponged some Pecan Pie ink behind it. I added a few little snowflakes in the background, then I matted it with a piece of Early Espresso woodgrain DSP and a Very Vanilla scalloped diecut. My final additions were some stitched ribbon, a sequin and a tan pearl:
Here's the inside, stamped in Early Espresso:
I like these warm colors!
Dana sent me this picture of Wayne looking out the window; apparently whatever it was he was looking at was interesting enough that Ginger and Eden were looking too!
They're all so cute! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

With warm brown colours you created a very beautiful Christmas card! I love the pretty detail with a ribbon bow. And thank you for playing with our challenges at 52CCT. Valentina DT
This is a fantastic embossed tree that works perfectly on the kraft! Love how you've added some ink inside the tree and around it! Great dimension!
Very pretty inside and out, LeAnne!
