Happy Tuesday! As I was preparing for the blog hop and our December Challenge, I came across an old blog post featuring cards of the same theme. The best part is that I still like the cards, so I knew I had to share them here this month!
I made these cards for a class I taught back in 2010. Since it was so long ago, the exact products I used may not be available. However, many of you may still have these stamps & dies in your collection… or something similar that would allow you to create similar cards! Enjoy this throwback!
Now, on to my White Christmas cards!
White Christmas with Blue
This first one features the new Tim Holtz snowman, die cut out of sticky back canvas which has been attached to white cardstock to firm it up. I love the texture of the canvas here and the texture of Tim’s snowflake embossing die as well! We added a touch of Distress Ink here. The inside features a smaller oval with some snowflakes stamped on it (also Tim Holtz) and a sentiment on the oval as well.

White Christmas with Pink
This next card features more Tim Holtz goodness… his fabulous snowflake edge die! I LOVE this thing- it’s so pretty as an edge or as a focal point, as I’ve used it here. I added some Glitter Ritz to a snowflake (this one came with the snowman die) and a bit of bling and layered it over some Whitewash core’dinations cardstock. The sentiment is by Hero Arts.

White Christmas with Kraft
This last card is my personal fave from the three… probably because I got to use kraft cardstock & the twine I love on it! I used the oval from the first card, which was dry embossed with snowflakes. Next I layered it over a piece of Basic Grey paper (from their ‘basics’ line) that I white embossed snowflakes on. The sentiment is Hero Arts again and the blingy pendant is by Maya Road.

Hope you like my White cards! It was a fun challenge and it’s so nice to be reminded that white does not have to look cheap or boring. Especially at Christmas, it can be very elegant when you add texture and just a hint of colour 🙂 I’d love to know…. which card is your favorite?
Inky hugs,

Love the white & kraft combo! That’s my fave!
Very beautiful cards.
