Well, it's been a long time since I've made a Christmas card. There is a color challenge at 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown this week -- Black, White and a Splash of Blue. I have several splashes of blue on my card but hopefully, that will be okay!
Stamps are from Inkadinkado, Holiday Silhouettes, and Stampin' Up. I embossed the side white panel with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder; other tools used were Spellbinders dies and Stampin' Up punches. A ribbon and a brad were added for embellishments.
Hubby and I played Mexican Train with five other couples this evening. The dominoes were good to me and I came in second place. Poor Larry was twelve out of twelve! It was an enjoyable evening -- hope you enjoyed yours too!
