Versatile Card

This has to be one of my favourite cards and stamp sets. It is the Baroque Motifs set and I love the big swirly thing in the set. It is not immediatly or even eventually and obvious Christmas card (actually got the idea at a workshop I attended) bit with the red and green it totally works. And of course the glitter helps! You may have noticed that this is also the background on the Keep Christmas card that I posted.

For this card I used the Garden Green paper and ink and Real Red ink, but switched it up with the Riding Hood Red paper and tafetta ribbon. Sneaky I know. I added some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to the center of the red flowers but you could add it to lots more places. I had a friend show me that you can stick glitter to the ribbon for a snow kisssed look, very pretty.

For the greeting I used the Sincere Salutations set, another great set because it come with a greeting for almost any occasion and they are all the same size. This means you can premake the cards when you are feeling crafty and leave the greeting spot blank until you need the card.
