It is Friday - time to use one of my Unity Stamps and share on Friends With Flair. It seems I am on a "make Christmas cards" kick. If you look at last week's post, you will see that I used the same paper for this week's card. The paper just goes so well with the dark brown embossing powder.
The image was done with Zing dark brown embossing powder. I colored the tree with some distress paints just to add a little color to the image. I then layered multiple layers of patterned paper. Thus my other two challenges.
Addicted to Stamps - Make Your Mark - I colored my tree with distress paints
Virginia's View Challenge - Patterned Paper - lots of patterned paper on this card The paper is from Simple Stories.
As I was putting my card together this week, I realized I had forgotten to add the beige pindots to my card from last week. No wonder I kept looking at it wondering what it was missing. The piece of paper came in handy this week and I made sure to put it on the card.
I must tell you (a peak into next week) that the card will be the same image only stamped in white embossing color. I am contemplating what wacky colors I can use on it. Any suggestions.
Enjoy your Friday - I have some fun planned for the week end so my card making will be a little limited plus next week I am staying with my grand dogs for a couple days. I wonder what mischief we can get into.

I love using this stamp for some of my Christmas cards. With the white embossing, blues would look nice and wintery. But non traditional pinks and purples might be cute. Can't wait to see what you do.
Very pretty Christmas card.
