Embossed Christmas

Just a quick little heat-embossed Christmas card using the sketch from Stamping 411 this week:

Oops, here’s the sketch:

I had to leave off the sentiment from the front; it just didn’t look balanced to me, so I stuck it on the inside!  Thanks for visiting today---off to church!

Christmas already??? Wow I'm not that organized. Great card. I think that considering the images you used, putting the sentiment inside was an excellent idea.
