I was having quite a bit of fun making Christmas cards this year, especially using the Concord and 9th Christmas release. For my first card, I made two colour combinations – red & gold and green, red & gold. I used Ranger embossing powder to emboss both the ornament and the sentiment and then I die cut the ornament and an ornament topper, adhered the topper on the ornament and added an ornament string.

Lastly, I popped the ornament up on foam tape and placed it on a background of Lawn Fawn patterned paper.

The Trim the Tree set looks so good with the Christmas Cheer Turnabout stamp set. I am really
pleased with how these cards turned out.

I used Lawn Fawn inks to stamp the turnabout in different colour combinations and added the die cut tree to the front of the card panel. The tree was stamped with a sentiment and ornaments or with the stripes border stamp, using Versamark ink, to create dimension. The tree topper is either a die cut star or bow.
Great Christmas cards, Ashlyn! I loved that ornament from Concord & 9th, but had tried to convince myself I had enough Christmas stamps, especially since I had purchased the Stamp of Approval Christmas Collection. So, I actually resisted! Shocking - I know! Hadn't checked into your sight for awhile - so I though I'd better catch up!
