Festive flurry Christmas card in coffee and cream …

Hi and welcome to my blog. Louise has set a neutral colour challenge this week at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown  – “coffee and cream”.  My design started with the beautiful snowflake paper in neutral colours from the Gilded Winter paper pad by Trimcraft. The paper is embossed with gold glitter – so festive and so pretty in real life …

I love shaped cards, and it’s even better if I can make my own! I used the circle framelits die set by Stampin’ Up! to create the card …

Gold sequins and adhesive pearls added texture, dimension and a little touch of luxury…
