A Snow Place Christmas Card

I was in need of a super simple looking Christmas card.  Not a lot of frills, not a lot of details, just a "to the point" type card.  I think I succeeded!!!  

I used the pretty Holly from the "Snow Place" set.  I colored in the leaves with Garden Green and I dotted on some Mossy Meadow.  I colored in the berries with Real Red.  I didn't want to use The Cherry Cobbler because I thought the berries would look almost black.  Edited: OOPS, I found out today 12-2-15 that the holly is from the "Oh, What Fun" set.  Sorry

The words are from the same set and I stamped those using Cherry Cobbler ink. 

I cut the Whisper White cardstock to 5" x 3-3/4".  I cut the Garden Green cardstock 4" x 5-1/4" and I set those layers on top of a folded half sheet of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.

It's quick and simple and super clean looking.  To me it looks like it belongs on the inside of a card.  Okay, maybe not "belongs" but may go well on the inside of a card.  I could always fold the card backwards and make that the inside.  Though I think I would like my wording up higher on the inside!!  Fine then, it's staying on the outside!!! LOL

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda
