This is so beautiful, such a simple but effective design and gorgeous colours, Kate x x

Loll said...

LOVE this design Christine. Your leaves are gorgeous in the different colours. What embossing glaze did you use for them?? I love how the script shows through the glaze, but the leaves have this beautiful, shiny finish. So fun zooming with you and Susan. We need to do that again soon!! xx

Susan said...

This one turned out beautifully!! Love the colour scheme - a nice muted old-fashioned look that goes really well with the font of the sentiment you used. It was a lot of fun trying out our embossing glazes together.

I am in love with Zoom, it brings friends together. This is just lovely. The shine is awesome and I love the different colors on the leaves. I will watch the video since embossing glaze is a new thing to me.

Wow, I absolutely love this! Where did you get that awesome script stamp. This is so well done and I just love the color blending. Great choice of stamps and this design is so perfect for almost any stamps for any occasion. I’d love to case this one!

This is beautiful. I love when the sentiment is printed on the same page as the image. I unfortunately, am terrible at stamping sentiments. I gave up, finally. I almost always print on a separate paper. I am just about the messiest stamper. I get ink all over the place. Hence, why I always use digis.

A unique and wonderful Christmas card Christine!

It sounds like you, Susan, and Loll had a fun crafty zoom play date. This is fabulous, Christine! Love the script stamping showing through the embossed glaze leaves. The muted colors of the leaves are so beautiful!

What a beautiful design, Christine! It's like a Christmas letter from the old country! I love the colors and that sediment is a favorite! You girls have the best, most productive, play dates! Keep 'em coming ~ I always learn something new from your get-togethers! Hugs, Darnell

Love the softness of the leaves against that background. I am going to have to check out embossing glaze xx

Leslie Miller said...

What a beautiful card! Nothing wrong with the sentiment to my eyes. Love the script background, too. I've never done a zoom, but I don't have a computer in my stamp room. Heck, I don't know where I'd put it!

Great card, Christine. I love the effect of the background showing through your leaves slightly. I believe that minor imperfections in the embossing make the card all the more valuable because you can see a human hand here. This is a priceless handmade card, not machine printing.
