My first attempt at faux tile. I also wanted to get started on 2011 Holiday Cards so I'm not stressed in December.
I like how the tile came out with the snowmen. I'm not 100% sold on the rest of the card yet. I think I'm going to tinker with the colors and layout a bit more, and will happily take any and all suggestions on how to improve this.
I used retired Lovely Lilac as my "grout", picking up on the purple in the snowmen. It may be the purple that's throwing me off, but I like purple so maybe not.
I used SU! Itty Bitty Background stamp for the snow, and then applied clear stickles on top. I like this effect but I may make the entire top part of the card blue, using the same combo of background stamp and stickles.

I think your card is great. I haven't seen faux tile before and I really like it. I also like your idea for starting your Christmas cards now so that you are not so stressed in December. Great idea!!
