Now that Thanksgiving is over, the rush to get everything ready for Christmas begins. Today I thought I would share with you a clean and simple Christmas card design that will have your friends saying Wow! when they receive it but won't stress you out to create it.
One of my favorite new colors from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog is Merry Merlot, from the Neutrals Color Collection. I love how warm and rich it looks combined with the Gold embossing and the Gold Glimmer paper.
This card is very simple to create using the Gold Foil Edged Cards & Envelopes from the 2018 Holiday Catalog, one of the hidden treasures of this catalog. I added a layer of Merry Merlot cardstock to the card base and heat embossed the snowflake images and sentiment from the Snow Is Glistening stamp set (item #149742) using Gold embossing powder. I also embossed the Joy sentiment onto a scrap of Merry Merlot cardstock and punched it out using the 1" Circle punch (item #119868).
The large die cut snowflake image has been die cut using the large detailed snowflake die from the Snowfall Thinlets dies (items #149692) from Gold Glimmer paper. I just love the sparkle it adds to this card and how it ties everything together.
As you can see, the Gold Foil Edged Cards & Envelopes (item #147901) add a beautiful touch to cards without the bulk of extra layers of cardstock and the matching envelopes make it a little extra special to the person receiving it. These cards and envelopes are so versatile and can be used of all occasions including special birthdays, weddings and anniversaries as well as graduations. They are a great value, with a pack of 20 cards and envelopes priced at just $9.50, you can create beautiful cards on a budget and no one will know. They are also available in Silver as well.
The Snow Is Glistening stamp set is wonderful all occasion stamp set. The images are so beautiful and coordinate with the Snowfall Thinlets dies to create simply amazing projects. Both of these products are available for a limited time as part of the Snowflake Showcase and will be available until November 30th or while supplies last.
I hope that my Christmas card has given you some inspiration to try your own simply Wow Christmas card designs to send to friends and family this year. All of these products can be found in my Online Store and you can place your order 24/7 and have it shipped to your door.

Until Next Time.
Happy Stampin',
