Beautiful Christmas tree of words from Papertrey Ink!
This is the final card ... after trying 9 different backgrounds! Just love this embossing folder ... All Star Burst from Simon Says Stamp.
Here are the 9 different backgrounds I was trying ... started with vellum - but thought it got a bit lost on it, the red die cut stars - too dark!, gold die cut stars - too similar to the tree ... and on it went.
Merry Christmas wishes to you ...
A silent night,
a start above,
a blessed gift of hope and love.
A blessed Christmas to you.
