Happy Wednesday, stampers! I have a fun little Christmas card for you today....it was easy to make but a challenge to photograph! Let me show you the challenges I used first! Both Christmas Kickstart and Jingle Belles want a pink Christmas, and the Tuesday Morning Sketches has a sketch, obviously:
And so here we go:
I used some beautiful pink and silver foil paper that is so pretty, but hard to capture in a photograph, so I am showing you two angles! The paper is simply adhered to a card front and silver diecut snowflakes are attached to vellum which is then attached to the card:
Here's a "flat" version...you can see the silver foil against the pink a little better.
The uber-cool thing about this card is that when the vellum is adhered to the patterned paper, the foil snowflakes turn WHITE!! Who knew? It made a perfect background for my silver foil snowflakes! So cool!
I added some silver twine and a little sentiment from Itty Bitty Christmas, stamped in Blushing Bride and diecut with a Tasteful Labels die to finish it off! Thanks for popping in today!
Cassidy created a pumpkin in art class...too bad it got folded in half, but it's still lovely:
I love the stem and the leaves! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Your card is so pretty, LeAnne, so shimmery and sparkly! Thanks for joining Pop's and me at Christmas Kickstart - it's great to have you play again, Jo x
PS Love the Pumpkin too, Jo x
I've popped over from the Jingle Belles challenge to see your card close up. I too used a foil paper and it's so hard to capture in a photo but you've done a great job. Really lovely card.
What a cool card and pumpkin!
So pretty, LeAnne! I love a pink Christmas card! The silver foil snowflakes are the perfect touch but I know they do not photograph too easily! Great job with the challenges! Oh, Miss Cassidy's pumpkin is just perfect! She's very talented like her Grammy! TFS Have a wonderful day! :)
Oh that is super beautiful foiled paper, LeAnne! and perfection for this challenge. LOve the vellum, and your beautiful silver snowflakes... why can't the real deal be this pretty?

WOW! This is so elegant, LeAnne! Love, love, love that paper and your silver snowflakes on vellum! Folding the pumpkin gives it added dimension! I love her shading!
The pink and silver is so delicate LeAnne - I love it! Love Cassidy's pumpkin too and I'm sure it will be used as part of the halloween decor! Vicky x
