Make a Sweet and Simple Christmas Card


Happy Thanksgiving week! I'm just stopping by with a sweet and simple Christmas card today. It's a simple layout, and you can apply this design to a variety of stamps and dies. Let's take a quick look, and then I'll send you on your way to finish Thanksgiving grocery shopping, and pie-baking! 
This card begins with an embossed layer of cardstock, adhered to a card base. I'm smitten with the Cozy Knit Embossing Folder. The embossing is so deep and textured - it's just stunning. Then, just grab a few small-medium stamps that flow nicely together (I used Gnome for the Holidays)  along with a simple sentiment, and a button or small embellishment.  I arranged them together, leaving lots of white space. (White space allows that gorgeous texture to shine, as well as the cute stamped images!) Layering a bell and twine bow onto the button adds a fun added layer. 

And there you have it! I told you - super simple and sweet today!
