Happy Monday! I hope you are getting a good start to the new week. We had such beautiful weather this past weekend, and enjoyed being outside. My husband and I were out on errands and on the spur of the moment we stopped in at a local German Bakery for pastries and coffee. It brought back wonderful memories from the time we lived in Germany. Living overseas was a great experience. It was delightful have a little taste of it so close to home.
I'm beginning the week with my first post to the fairly new Freshly Made Sketches challenge requesting cards with clean lines and interesting details. Fun!
This card came together easily with the Welcome Christmas stamp set. I kept the striking effect of the silhouette by stamping in Early Espresso ink, and matted a Scallop Circle #2 die cut. The silver accents include Glimmer paper, Neutral Glitter Brads, and a rhinestone jewel on the treetop. This happy family scene warrms my heart, especially paired with Frostwood Lodge DSP.
The holly and berries are from a new die with accessories for the Stocking Die.
