Christmas Colors Galore

For the first time that I can remember, I have made a card that fits two challenges:  Freshly Made Sketches and Sunday Stamps.  

I pulled out my container of Christmas stamps and dies and found several pads of Christmas patterned paper for the current Freshly Made Sketches 513.   The print is a bit busy, but it's definitely cheerful.  It was a 15-minute card, too. (Adhesives are my biggest problem, maybe because of arthritic hands!)


When I completed the card, I discovered that the new Sunday Stamps challenge was perfect for my multicolored Christmas card.

It's a beautiful print and a lovely card, Evelyn! I'm having so much problem with my internet (or something) lately and I cannot see your photos unless I click on the square, but then it pops up in full glory. It's not just your blog, BTW. Something is giving me random problems all over.

Ok, I give up. How in world do you use patterned papers? I may see it, but can't visualize how to use it. Part? Whole? and then with what other embellishments.?
Beautiful job as usual.

Beautiful patterned paper paired with that bold, yet simple sentiment and the delicate snowflakes make a lovely card!

That is beautiful patterned paper, and it works great offset with the bold black sentiment! Thank you for joining Sunday Stamps.
