It seems to me that the Christmas craziness has begun early this year - the week's seem to be racing ahead and there's sooo much to do!! I saw my DD off to schoolies today, have a weekend of stamping away coming up - and relatives arriving for Christmas in less than 2 weeks - aaagh!!! I think the one sanity in my life is my crafting!!! And since it's Wednesday today I get to play over at The Stamp Spot Blog - LOL.
Have you noticed - NO COLOURING!! And virtually NO STAMPING either!!! But with these gorgeous Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses papers it would be silly NOT to make them the feature event! I love these papers sooo much I picked up the whole paper pad from The Stamp Spot Online Store early on! This little village scene is soo cute, and combine it with the cuttlebug ornaments embossing folder it makes a fairly quick and easy card - which still has a bit of a wow factor! So remember to look at your DPs as main images and not just for backgrounds - and with all the fabulous papers Marcia has instore at The Stamp Spot I'm sure there's something for everyone!! The snowflake is a Spellbinders die - I'm just LOVING this die!!

What a clever card Debbie! That paper is so pretty!! Love how you tore some matching colors to add to the bottom. Very nice touch and that snowflake is just gorgeous:))

Oh Debbie you just make it sound and look so easy, beautiful card, just love that snowflake and ornaments embossed image! Hopefully we may see them at Stamp Camp lol, looking forward to seeing you all again, though still got my card to make! Take CareX:)
Beautiful card Debbie. Love the DSP...is it a new BG DSP, or is it an older one (ie can you still buy it)?
Also love the CB folder...looks strangely familiar ;-)....guess we both have good taste eh?

Yep, as usual, stunning card Debbie. I love these papers.
Okay, now I'm starting to panic! According to the ticker on your sidebar, there are only 30 days until Christmas. Holy mackerel, how the heck did that happen???
Gorgeous card, dear friend. Yes, using the DP as the focal is a great idea... as is your use of the CB folder. I LOVE IT! And I love the way you created the snow banks with torn paper. You are too clever!
I sure wish I could go on the stamp retreat with you. Have a pile of fun!
Lots of love and hugs,
Lisa
Debbie, Your card is beautiful and I too have these gorgeos papers still untouched. Thanks for the inspiration and have a fab crafting weekend, wish I lived closer. Hugs Jodie from Oz
Simply stunning! The white embossing looks fantastic against those beautiful papers. I know what you mean about feeling like time is going too quickly, never enough time........
Beautiful card Debbie. Clever how you have made the snow scene. I too love those papers and you were smart to have bought the whole collection early on. They seem to only be available as single sheets now and some have sold out!!
Wow..... Debbie
what a wonderful and elegant card you`ve made!
I love it!
Hugs Gisela
