Very nice cards so far, ladies. Love how simple and elegant these turn out. I did a few yesterday with some of the scraps I've generated over the last few months.

Oh my what fantastic cards everyone! This is a winner challenge too.

Cheryl those angels on the banners are darling!

Trixie your golden banners are so elegant.

Jill, I really like how you decorated your cards and those ornaments on the embossed banners are terrific.

Rachelle, like Marianne I love the red polka dots and also the icy blue cards. Pretty poinsettias too.


Here are two offerings for today and I hope to make 3 more with this sketch. Note that these are cross posts since I used Kraft card stock on both. Also the mistletoe is yet another NBUS.

Love the wet and dry embossing on kraft. Definitely going to give that a try. These turned out fantastic!

I finally finished one. This has been an off day. The scanner made the bow slip, so I need to glue it.

That's exactly what I was going to say. Wonderful way to use up all those different patterned papers we don't want to admit to having. Terrific card Pam.

I love the way your staggered banners make the white space look like snow covered hills and the banners like snow swirling in the sky.

I tried to make some elegant cards with embossed panels and banners but they aren't working. So I threw these together out of some leftover embellies that kept getting in the way. Anyone recognize the blue squares behind the first card?

I don't recognize the blue square.

Those turned out very pretty. I'm thinking Framed blue squares?
