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!

This is gorgeous! You have so many interesting elements! I'd love to know the make on the charm, and where you got it. I love the faux stitching, the charm, the ribbon, the framed peace, the colors,.....I could go on and on. Gorgeous!

This card is absolutely beautiful. I don't think that I've ever seen such a beautiful handmade Christmas card. I love every aspect of it. Especially the ornament charm. What a fantastic addition to the card.
You've also made me change my mind about True Thyme. I didn't think that I liked it before now.

It's someone who buys stamps they didn't normally like at first,only to see it in Split Coast Stampers gallery in a different perspective.
