Clean & Simple Holidays...
To view an image up-close, please click on the photo.
Today is World Card Making Day (I didn't know we had our OWN day!) and I took it as an opportunity to give Nichole Heady's Guest Star Stamper Challenge in the Clean and Simple Holiday Card category a try. For this card, I made use of my Nestabilities and a simple snowflake image. I wanted a more modern look, and so paired some Baja Breeze with Riding Hood Red. I admire cards with lots of white space (though I don't often make them myself!) and here I created a cut-out frame nestled within a succession of embossed squares with a tiny red bow to suggest a gift box. A little glitter pen later, my finished card.
Now on with the tour! Visit Lori's blog to continue the festivities...

Hi Regina, this is wonderful - so CAS! Love your colour combo too, Jo x
Absolutely awesome! Love everything about it!
Oooh lala! I love it.
Very sweet - love it!
Love this card, Regina. The simplicity, colors, and white space work so well! I love the bow to indicate a gift box, too! Great job!
I'm absolutely nuts about the use of white space, crisp dry embossed lines and a glorious cut-out present. Perfection. Hugs, M
