Monochromatic Christmas card

Whew...you wouldn't believe what just a couple of days off your blood pressure meds will do to a person! Saw my doctor, got a refill and am feeling much better!! :) So much better that I have a brand new card for you today!!

Before we get to that, I have to give a big ole shout out for our own uber sweet and seriously talented DeNami gal, Lisa Elton! She's one of the newest DT gals (starting January) over at Paper Sweeties!! How fun :) and I can't wait to see what she makes with those darling images!!! Congrats Lisa!!!

Alrighty then, lets get to todays little card! I saw a darling little monochromatic card in green and white on Pinterest (I'm sure you aren't surprised, lol) and wanted to make one myself....
Well I almost nailed it, lol!!!! After I made the card I thought it really needed a little pop of color so I redid my medium pine tree with it's little medium tree swirl overlay stamp. Well, doing that led to another change - I had to pull the gold color from somewhere so I changed out the green rhinestones for gold ones. All in all, I'm happy with my card even if it isn't the monochromatic card I started out to make :)

That's it for me today, I'll see you back here on Monday with the cutest little Christmas treat box!!! See ya then, have a great weekend!

  2. I have had the little pine tree for years now but have yet to purchase the overlays. I'd like to request a 'tips and tricks' on how you punched out the scalloped square while leaving the tip of the tree intact. That looks really cool! Great card!
