Noel...

Happy first day of December everyone!  I can't believe we are already at the end of the year!  Where did the time go?!  I have a pretty simple card to share today that combines an older die set and a newer die set along with some a mixed media element.

For my card today I used the older Fresh Cut Pine die set and the recently released Vintage Ornaments die set.   The Fresh Cut Pines is a favorite of mine and so I had to try to use it to create at least one Christmas card before the season is over!  I die cut the pine branches from dark green cardstock and then covered them with the new Tim Holtz Snowfall grit paste.  I love the frosty look it give to the branches.  Once that was done I looked through my Christmas patterned papers for something with a bit of a rustic look.   I found the background piece and die cut it.  I love how it has the little splatters of white on it.  I then die cut the ornament from the red snowflake paper that was from the same pad.   it is hard to see in the photo, but I also used one of the detail dies to add a star detail to the ornament.  I then die cut the topper from silver mirror cardstock and the word noel from the same dark green as the pine branches.  I adhered the background to kraft cardstock and the attached the pine branches.  The ornament was popped up and then I added the little red bow as a finishing touch.  Going to add this to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.
