Time to be starting on Christmas card. I started with cards for the

grandchildren.  This one used a lot of snippets:

I used set by Momenta, it does not have a name on it but contains

 all the pieces above.  Merry Christmas is from an older Angel Company

set. Ar Perfect Arches and Tags die by Spellbinders.

Traditional Christmas Colors

 Time to be starting on those Christmas cards if you haven't yet. Allsorts

Challenge for two weeks is traditional Christmas colors to get you

going, also ATG's is always an option. 

 

 My card:

 

I started with a Sizziz poinsettia embossing folder, I swiped the

poinsettia's with a white pigment ink and then embossed with

a Stampendous PearLuster embossing powder. I then die

cut a Momenta Merry Christmas die set out and layered it, adding

a few gems to the poinsettia center.  This was a set I got

years ago on clearance at Hobby Lobby, nice to finally use it!
