Hello my friends.
Hope all is well with you and I bet you are all busy with Christmas card creations.
My share today is fast and easy but it has a great punch of that wonderful Blackberry Bliss color. I used a snowflake designed paper from the Trim the tree paper stack and built on from there.
I put a tiny bit of Gold Glimmer paper through the Scalloped Tag Topper and adhered it behind the Brushed Gold Tag. I ran this piece through the Northern Flurry Embossing folder to pull the snowflake design out from the DSP. Here is a closer shot of that.
I pulled out a few ribbons but decided on the Blackberry Bliss Stitched Satin and then layered the sentiment in that color as well. Tip for you...these ink pads are very "juicy" so don't push to hard. I also used my heat tool to dry it thouroughly before attaching to the Blackberry. Sure saves alot of frustration!!!
Inside I also used the Northern Flurry folder for a little interst and stamped the sentiment with the Stamp-A-Ma- Jig...again easy does it.
Here are the easy links to all the wonderful products I put into this card....
Who knew, Crumb Cake, Whisper White and Blackberry Bliss went so well with the golds. Here is the sketch we had for this week......Wide open for creative minds!!! I'll bet my team members have made beautiful things.
So now off you go...check out what they have in store and happy creating.

The colours you have chosen do in fact go perfectly together is seems that purple and sparkle are the order of the week with all our cards!

Wow, nice color choices and I love that you embossed the tag and then added a second gold one behind it, great way to add depth to the card!..
