I used a portion of the Peace on Earth from the Heaven and Nature Retired set for the LSC75 challenge. I stamped the Cranberry layer with Houndstooth BG using Versamark, the Thyme layer with Houndstooth also in Versamark, then rolled over it using the Woodcut Holly Wheel and Thyme ink. The little ornament charm was a pewter finish, so I sponged it with Encore Copper Craft Ink lightly so it would match the HPH Oval a little better.
This is my first Christmas card so far this year, even though I signed up for CC06 Challenge back in February - only 79 more cards to go! :-) Thanks for looking!

Your card was my inspiration for this year's Christmas cards! I used Handsome Hunter and Cranberry Crisp, with Natural Ivory. I colored the berries in Cranberry Crisp, and embossed them with clear powder. My ribbon was ivory with gold metallic thread. They turned out very nice - I received many compliments.
My only problem was that due to the many layers, I ended up spending extra money on postage because they were just on the brink of being over one ounce. We put a letter and picture in some of the cards as well, so they were substantially over the weight limit. Next year, I won't be using so much layering!!!
