Christmas card challenge 1....Christine's choice ....snowflakes

the first challenge of 2019....and my new years resolution is to make all this years cards using existing stash.....I managed not to buy anything new for the last 3 month of the year so I am going to see how long I can do.....
this one is a clean and simple design.....



I used an old embossing folder...apple blossom let it snow...the snowflakes and the sentiment are from tonic...a nice simple start..
There is a list of the other girls in the groups blogs with links on my side bar...please pop and see their wonderful creations.....and thank you for visiting my blog today.

Happy New Year and Happy Birthday Margaret! I very nearly used this exact embossing folder for my card this morning then changed to a John Lockwood one but the Apple Blossom one is so fresh looking. Great card. Hugs Christine xx

Great looking card Margaret. I have this folder from Apple Blossoms and I will certainly give it a try as I forget sometimes what is in my stash. A very Happy Birthday to you and many blessings coming your way. I celebrate mine tomorrow. Big Hugs!

Stunning using that version of the Embossing Folder.
Goes perfectly with the tonic die. I'm only going to use stash already in my drawers and cupboards too. Hugs Mrs A.

Beautiful CAS card love all the white embossing--think we can all get carried away thinking ooh I need that when we probably already have something similar we can adapt

I love it! The simple white with the mirror silver cardstock...I love it and just goes to show how you can make a card so elegant with just 2 papers.
