Soft and Merry

This card was one of the prototypes for my Christmas Stamp-A Stack.  The gals made 5 each of 3different cards.  I ended up designing all the cards around the Sleigh Bells ribbon.  See this post for Stamp-A-Stack cards:  http://sunnystampinsmiles.blogspot.com/2009/11/christmas-is-in-air.html

My inspiration for this card was a Christmas present.  Using Whisper White card stock for the base and Soft Suede card stock for the top layer and the accent, I used the Merry Embosslit (116820) to make the "gift tag".  I just love embosslits!  Cut and emboss in one step!  Lickidee-split!  Just like that! :)  The snowflake on the tag is from Best Wishes & More (111602) and is "inked up" with Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint (116806) using a Sponge dauber (102892).  Isn't it purtee?  I random stamped the top layer with the same snowflake in Versamark (102283) and tied some White Organza Ribbon (114319) around to give it the "present" look.  Then I added the tag with some Gold Elastic cord (109867).  If you would like to order any/all of the items to make this simple and elegant card, please click here and you be directed to my Stampin' Up! demonstrator website.
