I awoke at 4 A.M. and couldn't sleep, so I decided why not get crackin on those Christmas cards?!? As a master procrastinator, I of course hadn't even thought about what I was going to do yet....so I had to work with paper and embellishments I had enough of on hand. Hence, brown snowflakes this year! =)
I would HIGHLY not recommend trying to use the little slot punch through 3 layers of SU's thick cardstock! OW!@!! (I really don't think I could have done this if I hadn't had such a frustrating week! lol) I made 30 of these in bulk, designing it as I went. (I know, I'm weird like that) I used a brad in the centers so I didn't have to use a ton of adhesive, and adhered the whole big image with a big pop glue dot. I spritzed the white piece with cocoa and chocolate chip, stamped various flakes in cocoa on the caramel base, and did some dtp on the base in chocolate as well. I really wanted to do some stitching, but not on this many cards....lol!

I love the ticket corner punch and your brown card is so cute. FYI, SU's paper is the absolute hardest to punch with any punch. I hate to say it, but cheaper works better.

I love the browns! This is the second card I've seen with this stamp set where they used browns. But, I've gotta say that it is super cute! Thanks for the inspiration!
