I am enjoying playing with the non Christmas colors this season, anybody else feeling this way? For this card, I started with Su's River rock stamped with Cornish Heritage Farms Rice Paper BG in espresso by Adirondack. Next is a beige layer of textured paper by Hot off the Press. I managed to use Basic Grey Fruitcake papers AGAIN! Smile. This time both sides Pine Branch/Avalanche. I CB'ed the layers with the swirls and then stamped the angels (from River City Rubber) with Tim Holtz walnut stain and clear ep. The music paper is from Bohemia Christmas papers and I use the bottom border where the name is to piece together a scalloped frame. It was an experiment to mitre the corners. The scroll is another of the Periphery line from Basic Grey, UTEE'd and cracked. I finished it off with trim from MM St.Nick line. Let me know what you think,please. TFL

Very pretty! I like the non traditional colors! I made a Frosty card out of Soft Sky and Blue Bayou and I thought it turned out neat. We shouldn't always have to use typical Christmas colors!

Fabulous! Love all the layers and the embossing adds such a great texture! Beautiful use of the trim and the scrolled accent along the bottom! Another WOW card - you have such a great eye for putting together cards that are rich in dimension and texture with great images!
