A Shimmery Christmas!

Oh my, another case of "Shameless Casing!!!!!"

I saw this card on Kari's Stamping Made Easy blog. I downloaded the card to my computer and kept looking at it several times in one day and I just knew that I HAD to make one. It's such a stunning card.

I used the Stampin' Up! "Lovely as a Tree" set and a VersaMark pad. The words are from the "Many Merry Messages" set. I was surprised when I was looking through my stamps that I had EVERYTHING to copy this card exactly as Kari did!!!

First of all I LOVE the Bravo Burgandy used. I also LOVE the use of the new die cut, the gold embossing, the brushed gold card stock and not to mention how quick this card was to put together.

Had I not already figured out our Christmas card for this year I think I would have just copied this one. It's absolutely gorgeous.

It's always nice when you can make such a stunning card that takes so few layers and no embellishments. The gold embossing and gold card stock just carry this card on it's own. It's got such a rich look to it too!!! Didn't she do a fabulous job creating it??? I merely copied it, not a lot of effort in it. But now and then one must case a card they just can't stop looking at!!! LOL

I was not going to buy the Top Note die but broke down and finally put it on my order yesterday. Now I am so glad that I did. I really love this card as well. I will be casing it, I'm sure!
