Hello!
Today I made a card to enter the Color Hues: #122 - Teal and Silver challenge. So here is my card. I like it. You? It is nice to have another one finished for my Christmas list.
In my huge stash of specialty card stock I found a pack of shiny silver from Erin Lee Creative. Using my Stamp & Cut machine, I cut out both flower and the greeting. Gluing them was the hard part because as usual, I didn't think to use an adhesive sheet. Sigh. My finger in the glue worked out. :-)
The elegant die is retired from Poppy Stamps called Stained Glass Poinsettia. The word die Joy is an older goodie from Queen & Co.
Inside is a nice piece of white cardstock with a couple of snowflakes cut from the leftover silver paper. I will write a note before mailing.
I almost always write a note in my Christmas cards. Do you? A great deal of my friends live out of state.
A cloudy but quite warm for November day here...in the 40's. I am looking forward to some snow, but it probably will be a while yet.
Thank you for visiting and I hope you will come by again. I sure appreceiate comments!

Beautiful card! I love the color combo. I generally stamp a sentiment inside each of my Christmas cards, but I also include a Christmas letter (printed with my computer) or a handwritten note.
Beautiful card and beautiful poinsettia die, love the colour combo, I usually just add a little handwritten note. I usually spread glue on my desk or cutting mat and dip intricate dies in -works for me lol.

I love the simplicity of this card, Jeanne. The gorgeous die is all it needs. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Color Hues. I appreciate it.
CAS and oh so lovely Jeanne! I love the delicacy of the die you used and how it really shines against the darker teal cardstock! And yes, I always write a little handwritten note in my cards...makes it more personal!! Thanks so much for sharing this lovely, lovely card with us at the Color Hues Challenge! Marcia (DT) :0)
This is so pretty, Jeanne! Taken with Teal is one of my all time favorite colors and it's so pretty with the silver poinsettia! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Color Hues!
