This is my sample for CC585. I am your hostess this week and I chose wild wasabi, cherry cobbler and gold for the color trio. Dessert is anything goes. So it's your choice. I made mine Christmas this week.
I used some Memory Box dies to create the Christmas scene. On my background I used the "Kassie's Brocade" embossing folder from Cuttlebug. I inked it up with gold ink before putting my paper inside.
The sentiment is from the SU set "come to Bethlehem". I stamped it on the bracket die from MFT.
Hope you can play along with us this week. Check out the other DT samples for more inspiration.

Oh, Mary! This is gorgeous, and I LOVE the gold outline of your Christmas candles. And the embossing is amazing with the inking before - really adds rich texture! Absolutely a stunning card! Hugs, sweet friend!

Those colors definitely lent themselves beautifully to Christmas cards, Mary. Love your cream behind the white. Your window is delightful as well. Very pretty card with your colors.
