FS462 - I just loved her gallery and did a second card from this inspiration: Christmas labels by sixclarks at Splitcoaststampers. I needed to do the Batik so I used the music BG and did the technique. Then her card had a great die cut so I used a babble with a point on the bottom to mirror the point on her die cut. Finally she had a great label die cut with Merry Christmas so I used my nice label die cut and added the same sentiment. I added liquid pearls and gems and my ribbon is a die cut. I found that when I send my Christmas cards I need to do them with less embellishments as they cost a bit more to mail so this years cards I am going to use less bulky embellishments.
CCC15 - getting ahead for next year's Christmas. I was in a rush to do several last minute yesterday to get them all mailed out by tomorrow. Trying to not do that again.
Thank you for looking!

I definitely have to try this technique again, I've seen a couple of great cards using it in the gallery for Melody's challenge. My first try was a disaster, used it up for punched flowers!! Your ornament is beautiful, too.

Your card is absolutely fabulous Lisa. Love the batik background. I don't make many cards with a colored base, you took my solid background and made it oh so much more. You inspire me to stretch beyond my basic white
Thanks so much for playing along again!

So beautifully done. I love the way the colours ran down the page and compliment each other without muddying the results. Love that beautiful gold embossed ornament too.

Lisa,
Wow, I love the batik bg on this card! Awesome! I hear you on the less embellishments! I was lucky this year, only 8 cards needed an additional 22 cents!
