love it!
so fun, right?!
the golden browns remind me of a christmas sugar cookie! lol
I started by ink blending with Vintage Photo and Fossilized Amber onto white cardstock. then I used the Reindeer Stencil and white embossing paste to add the subtle texture in the background!

next, I die cut out the frame using the Card Layout 3 Die Set from some Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock Assortment. I also used the same Distress Inks to add an ombre look to the glitter to tone down the brightness! so fun!

I die cut out the scripty part of the words from cream paper and then ink blended with the same colors onto the shadowed background die.
I finished the card off y sprinkling some puffy white pompoms and sequins! 
 
my next card showcases the new Happiest Holidays Die Set.
they just work so well together!

LOOOOOOVE this one!
I die cut the pine from the Pines & Holly die set many times and ink blended them with Distress Inks in
Mowed Lawn, Twisted Citron and Pine Needles. then I sprinkled some white acrylic ink on top!

I did more ink blending on top of the scripty, glitter die! Again, I used the
Cheerful Brights Glitter Cardstock Assortment and this time, I used Pine Needles to add a little extra darkness to the bottom. so fun!
I used the Lattice Die with black cardstock and popped it up against the background.
