Christmas Cards

 Time for another bi-weekly challenge at  Allsorts. Christine has chose
Christmas cards for our theme, anything goes is always an option too.
 I was in the mood for a fun fold, not sure what the name of this fold is, 
I found the pattern by Lynn Dunn on Pintrest. 
 

 
 
 

I pulled out papers I inherited from my mom, (almost all my
Christmas cards this year will be with mom's supplies in her 
memory.)  The Gleaming Bells die is by Memory Box, sentiment and
Papers are Stampin Up.  Front white panel is embossed with Stampin
Up linen embossing folder and then spritz with gold glitter spray. 
 
Hop on over to Allsorts challenge to see the design teams lovely cards

The fun fold design adds such a delightful twist to your Christmas card theme, and the use of your mom’s supplies brings a beautiful layer of meaning and memory to your work. The embossed linen texture paired with the gold glitter spray creates a lovely sense of warmth and celebration. The Gleaming Bells die is a perfect focal point—elegant and festive. This card feels both heartfelt and artistically refined.

Making your cards from your mother's treasure trove of papers is a marvelous way to keep her memory. The card you've made is just stunning. I'm so glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas for our November challenge of using die cuts and critters.
