December Christmas Card

Hi there! Today, I am sharing this 5x7 paper pieced card I've created for my daily post at Craftin Desert Divas. I used the December sentiment from the Simply Holidays Wordart stamp set.





I have to admit, deciding on paper for this card was tough for me! Ultimately, I was happy with my final decision. I wanted the card to have an old style look to it, so stuck with deeper Christmas colors. I added some embossing to the snow at the bottom and just a touch of glitter to give the card some sparkle.

My favorite part about the card, the stamped saying! It brings it all together. You can purchase the Simply Holidays Wordart stamp set by clicking on the link above.
