Pastel Cookie Christmas

Happy Tuesday, all! I am steadily working on Christmas cards, how about you?  I was intrigued by the colors of pink, blue and gray in the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown challenge this week, but when I saw the Peace on Earth Christmas challenge, I had an idea!!  Here's their prompts:

I took my inspiration from the little snow village in the lower left; I remembered a fun embossing folder I got last year, so I pulled it out and went to work:

As sometimes happens, the idea in my head doesn't quite transfer to the actual card, but after investing time in it, I just accepted it, LOL!  I embossed a piece of watercolor paper with the Christmas Cookie embossing folder, then lightly gave the raised areas a wash of Pretty in Pink, Balmy Blue and Smoky Slate.  I added a wee little sentiment and some skinny silver ribbon from my stash (which will probably never run out, LOL!), then mounted it on a piece of Pink Pirouette and a gray card from my local stamp store:

I did add some glittery accents and a sentiment on the inside:

Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!
