Up until the night before the blog hop, I had no idea what in the world I was going to make for this month’s blog hop. But then I remembered that a little over a week ago, my monthly card class made simple Christmas cards. The original was similiar, but used a differnt stamp set. This card has only one item from the Holiday Mini Catalog. Can you guess what that item is?
No, it isn’t the Whisper White cardstock, but if you guessed the Candlelight Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper, you are absolutely spot on! When I ordered the paper I had not realized this one was a flocked window sheet. I instantly fell in LOVE with the paper. I also punched out a piece of Silver Glimmer Paper to add that beautiful sparkle in the back ground.
I used basic black ink to stamp the sentiment from the Chock-Full of Cheer stamp set and punched both papers using the Ornament Punch. The newly introduced 1/4″ Real Red Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon tops the Ornament with a simple loop. The Petals-a-Plenty embossing folder completes the elegant yet simple card. Hope you enjoyed my card and please feel free to reproduce it. You can email me if you have any questions.

This is fabulous – I adore plain and simple but you’ve turned this into a very elegant card!
I have been staring at this window sheet just wondering what to DO with it…love how you layered it on top of the glimmer paper. Such a clean card! Love it!
Maggie, love how you used the silver glimmer for the background on the ornament along with the white embossed background. It’s so pretty!! Also great to know about the window sheet in this DSP pack.
