Good morning all!
It’s a little early to talk Christmas, but I have just been in the mood to start my Christmas cards early. It’s never too early because there never seems to be enough time to get them all done.
I created this card watching the season premier of Greys Anatomy last night. Did you watch it? It was very good, but was on way too late. I have to get up very early so I’m dragging today. My sitter had a bad cold yesterday and today my little one has it. No fun!
When I bought this set called “Snow Swirled” from Stampin’ Up! (pg 32, #111690), the delicate look of it made me think “pink”! I alternate the theme of my Christmas tree every year between Victorian and multi-color. I may do the Victorian tree this year which also inspired my card creation last night.
The first thing I did was emboss a Whisper White card with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder. Then I stamped and embossed the tree from the Snow Swirled set onto Pretty in Pink cardstock. I layered the embossed tree on Whisper White and then Pretty in Pink behind that. I stamped “Season’s Greetings”, also included in the Snow Swirled set, in Whisper White Craft Ink on the pink cardstock and cut out with my Nestabilities the oval shape. I layered that piece on a slightly larger embossed oval in Whisper White to raise up the saying a little. To finish it off, some shiny pink ribbon!
TGIF – the weekend is almost here. Thank you for stopping by and I appreciate all your comments. Please drop me a line anytime! Have a wonderful day!

oh my goodness,...this is so pretty! Love the embossed tree!
I also have traditionally created a Victorian Christmas tree, so this card is very beautiful to me, too. Gorgeous card. Will this be in your card kit?
Tiffany - this is just beautiful. I hope you don't mind, but I may CASE you on this one.
The pink would be perfect for me to create a set of cards for my Mom to send out.
LOVING this card. Thanks for the inspiration!
Very pretty Tiffany! Delicate and Elegant!! Love that its not traditional Christmas colors!!
Love the Pink! Brilliant color change-up for the holidays (especially preceding Breast Cancer Month). Hugs M
