merry and bright...

It's hard to believe Christmas is only days away... there is still so much to do!

Lots of wrapping to finish, cookies to bake, candy to package and- as always- just a couple more cards needed to tuck into those goodies.
I've got a clean and simple card that fits the bill!

Tammy Tutterow's Merry & Bright stamp was perfect to play with. It is SO stinkin' cute!! I stamped it onto some green patterned paper and again onto a plain white card stock, then once more onto a red-framed label. A little fussy-cutting and layering and it was done. Colored pencils took care of the details on the white layers. The fun little tree lights and star topper are rhinestones!
CAS is a style I admire but find difficult to mimic. Once I added a simple ribbon and some decorative photo corners I was satisfied with the overall level of embellishment. 
"Less is more" is really tough to do!!
This stamp would also work perfectly stamped onto some shipping tags, colored in and tied up with pretty ribbon- what a nice way to finish off your gifts.

Wishing you all a holiday filled with love and laughter!

Wow! You rocked this stamp, girl! Using the sequins on the card was a genius moment of inspiration. I can't do a CAS card to save my weary soul. But you knocked this outta the park. Love how you did the sentiment on a label. So effective! Wishing you a very, very Merry Christmas, dear heart!

A wonderful mix, Terri! I especially love the subtle pattern in the background - gives it an elegant feel! Beautiful work!

Your card is so beautiful, Terri! I love the elements you've added to the tree and that gingham bow is fabulous. It's been so much fun being with you on this team and getting to know you. I will continue to enjoy your creations and swooning over your unique vintage style. Merry Christmas and wishing you wonderful things in 2018.
