Hi there. Today I’m sharing my first Christmas card for 2025!
I have to say that I just Love the Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer series paper(165853). It is so very beautiful with its bright and rich colours and deserves to be the focal point on this Christmas card. I added two sprays of evergreen by cutting one from Gold Foil and the other from the Season of Elegance Specialty Designer series paper(164144) that was carried over from last year.
The embossing is from a new folder called Peaceful Greenery 3D Embossing Folder(165928) and will be a favourite for sure this season!
I am playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge and designed the arch for this card by using the Impressions Abloom Dies and just cutting them part way to leave just the opening.
Here’s the list of products used.
