Tuesday with Tara {take 71}

Happy Tuesday!  As promised, I’m starting to share some Christmas cards with you this week!  If you haven’t already started creating your holiday cards it’s not too late… today’s is a pretty quick one to put together once you gather the pieces- and I made it in two different palettes to prove it 🙂  I started with Tim’s Fresh Brewed coffee die and looked for a Christmas sentiment to fit the sleeve portion of the die.  I heat embossed a sentiment by Hero Arts that fit nicely and edged all the pieces with Distress Ink.

I decided to find a sketch for my card design, and selected one on Pinterest that I liked.  From there I chose patterned papers and put it all together:

I really like the simple design and the bits of gold add a touch of bling 🙂

Here’s my second card with the same design:

Thanks for checking out my simple cards!  Hopefully you are inspired to start on your Christmas cards if you haven’t already- they don’t have to be complicated to be beautiful and appreciated 🙂

Inky hugs,

Tara
