Christmas Treats IX & X

Hello everyone,

Today's two Christmas cards use up some of the larger and teeny, tiny scraps from the 12X12 sheet of printed paper.


The printed paper is K&Company Tim Coffey layered on Stampin' Up Glorious Green.  The sentiment is Stampendous Christmas Script stamped in Early Espresso on Recollections Ivory, layered on Simple Stories December Documented Red Snowflakes and highlighted with Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen.  The ribbon is of unknown origin.  The embellishments are EK Success Candy Cane Repeat Stickers.


The printed paper is K&Company Tim Coffey layered on Stampin' Up Glorious Green and Simple Stories December Documented.  The Glorious Green layered was textured with Couture Creations Washed Away embossing folder and highlighted with Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen.  The sentiment is Stampendous Retro Christmas Script stamped in Glorious Green on Recollections Ivory, layered on more Simple Stories December Documented and highlighted with Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen.  The embellishment are BoBunny Elf Magic Jewels.

Love the first card.  Not so fussy on the second card.  I have to say Glorious Green isn't so pretty when you see so much of it.  It's been great as a layer but you see way too much of it on the second card.  I tried to help it by add textured with an embossing folder and some glitter but it's still a not so pretty card.  I wanted to use every last scrap of printed paper but these are just too small to work against all that Glorious Green.  Live and learn!

I hope you enjoy these cards and come back to SPI again soon.
