Fab Friday has another fabulous color combination that I think is just perfect for a Christmas card and I paired it with a great sketch from Try Stampin' On Tuesday.
I sure have been getting a lot of use out of my In Colors lately! Every one of them looks fantastic on a Christmas card, in my opinion. I sure will miss Pool Party when it retires this summer...or will it? Maybe they will decide to find a place for it in the Subtles collection. I wouldn't mind replacing one of the light blues in there with it. :)
My favorite part of this card is all of the texture. I am OBSESSED with embossing folders. I honestly don't know how I lived without them! I am working on a card for the Creative Crew over on Splitcoaststampers using ONLY stamps, ink and paper and it is TOUGH! I am spoiled by all of these cool tools and accessories we have now! The Jumbo Eyelet is retired but I couldn't help but keep some on hand for my tags. I don't know why in the world these ever retired. :( I don't keep many things once they retire, but this is one of my must-haves for tags!
