This is my card for Carole's VSN challenge to make a Christmas card without using red or green. I've been making a variations of this layout for my holiday cards this year, so I decided to try one in slate and brown. I love the finished look! I added some cinnamon stickles to the sentiment and the embossed piece for a bit of sparkle

Very nice, neat layout with just enough punch (haha) to draw the eye, but still simple for mass production (should you so desire).
I'm really liking the browns I'm seeing in this gallery!

Wow! This is so fantastic. Love the dry embossing, button, snowflake and the thread treatment......love it all and the addition of the stickles is awesome.
