This one is one of the workshop Make-N-Takes for this month. My Stampin' Up! "Dasher" stamp is really getting a workout lately. I love this little guy! No glitz this time. All supplies from Stampin' Up!. I chose the casual colors of Ruby Red, Kraft and Basic black card stock. A little strip of the Holiday Lounge designer paper gives it some pizazz. The ribbon is Kraft Taffeta. I used a white gel pen to add some faux stitching and some doodley-dots. The little Christmas greeting is from a retired set, "Best Yet".
This one is so simple. All I used is Stampin' Up!'s Real Red and Whisper White card stock. Christmas Cocoa Specialty designer paper, and the Ornament Punch, all from the Holiday Mini Catalog that you can see here.
The background was made with a CB embossing folder and some silver wired ribbon from my scrapping stash. I accomplished the faded effect on the embossing by putting a piece of chipboard in the middle of the folder, causing it to embossing deeper where the shape was placed. Easy-peasy!
I'll have some more to post tomorrow. Thanks for visiting!

Oh these are both so beautiful. The colors look so sharp together!! Oh man I need to work on Christmas cards. Is it november already??
both cards are stunning but my favorite is the ornament one with all the texture and depth.
These are both so pretty. I love the simplness of the first one and the fanciness of hte second one.
Beautiful cards! They are both so elegant! I love the papers you used!
So pretty! I especially love the one with the ornaments.
Your stitching looks real in the top card!! Great job on that! Love the red color combo as well. I bet your customers were so happy with the projects!
Nice!!! The Dasher card is perfect!!! I like that you left it clean looking, it makes such a statement. Those colors are great together! As for the second card, I am blown away by your faded embossing. I am going to have to give that a try! Sounds like such a simple step, but the effect is tremendous!
