I am so loving the white on white for Christmas cards! I decided to bling it up a bit and add in some silver foil. I ended up with so much bling, that taking a photo was a bit of a challenge! Getting a half way decent photo took longer than creating the card! I created my card based on the sketch challenge at Mojo Monday–
The moment I saw the sketch, I knew it was a perfect match for the Custom Ornament Thin Cuts! My card was super simple to make. My background panels are embossed with a snowflake embossing folder and matted onto silver foil. For my ornament, I cut my decorative top layer in white and adhered to a silver foil base. The ornament is super simple, the Thin Cuts do all the work for you! My bow is a totally different story! I picked up, what I thought was a silvery shimmer organza ribbon from the dollar store. Not! Totally not organza, but heavy on the silvery shimmer! I really felt like I needed a sentiment on the front, but I did not want to take away from the ornament. Most of my stamped sentiments seemed to get lost in all the bling. I finally ended up die cutting some small letters to spell joy in silver foil.
