Christmas Card Sunday #3!

It's Christmas Card Sunday!! Check out Sparkle's Blog for her challenge cards. Each week she hosts the challenge to make some Christmas Cards by Sunday. I decided that my color challenge card could be one card for this week and here is the other one I created. I'm thinking I'm going to have to make some more cards like this with these colors as I lovey them!



Usually I have a tough time creating religious Christmas cards that I really love, but this one came out better than what I had in mind! The card is inspired by my entry Christmas tree, it has a very homespun rustic look to it and this is the color theme I used as well. I used the Silent Night stamp set for the sentiment, star, and white stars in the background. Holiday Tags were used to create the background paper, both sets by Papertrey Ink. I have to say that my Holiday Tags set has been my most used Christmas set ever! I have been loving it! Anyway, don't forget to check out Sparkle's Blog where this challenge is hosted!


And since this is already about Christmas cards I thought I'd post a quick pic of the darling handmade Christmas cards that I've gotten so far this year. Thanks Sparkle, Jenn M, Laurel, Jena, and Marcia!! Your cards are looking lovely on my piano ^_~ Have a wonderful winter Sunday everyone!!

What a pretty card. I find it hard to make religious cards too, but you have done well with this.

Your card is really stunning! I love the star on top of the snowflake, and the bright white stars on the bg really pop off the page. Very nicely done! :) Merry Christmas! Kel
