This first card was an oops, lol. I made the card thinking the contest was for showcasing the new stamp sets. The contest for cards needed to showcase the new papers. So I added the thin strips of Mistletoe, and still submitted it even though I know it wasn't showing much of the paper.
.
All Card Sizes: 4.25" x 5.5"
The tree is from the Tannenbaum Stamp Set. I embossed it with Gold EP, I clear embossed the tops of the tree on the White Daisy CS. I used the Corner Rounder to make the scallops, and finished it off with pearls and rhinestones.

This next card I wanted to show that the Olivia papers could be Christmas-y too. I used the set of trees from Holiday Trinkets to stamp a background. I used the Blending Pen to colour in the tree.
I embossed the tree with Black EP, and finished the card off with rhinestones and colonial white grosgrain ribbon.

Here's the card I made to showcase the Mistletoe papers (since I oops it on the first card:)). I used the stamp set Snow Days, and the sentiment is from Everlasting Life. I used the Blending Pen to colour in the house, and Prisma Glitter to add sparkle to the snowy areas.
I embossed the sentiment with Black EP on vellum, and attached it so the edges were not flat but curled up a bit.
I made a total of 5 cards, and none of the 5 won. Oh well, there's always next catalogue release:)
Enjoy,
Deneen

Sweet cards, I especially like the first one, but will probably case all of them. - grins -
These are beautiful!
WOW Deneen, it is surprising to see what amazing artwork didn't win. Your cards are beautiful!
Deneen,
Your artwork is amazing and I can't imagine what could have possibly won if you didn't! These are so awesome
Love these cards! Especially the last one - beautiful details.
That is CRAZY....those cards are fabulous!!! I don't get it, shaking my head. I think they are beautiful.
I really like the Christmas wishes card. I enjoy using non-Christmas papers for Christmas. I gave you a little something on my blog, but you'll have to visit it to get it. katescraps.blogspot.com Great job!
Love all of the cards, especially the Peace on Earth. It is gorgeous! Did you stamp and color the top right image right on the patterned paper?
Hi there,
Thanks for your kind comments. I stamped the bridge right on the patterned paper and used a white gel pen to add the snow. The house is stamped on white CS.
Thanks for asking:)
Your cards are sweet. I love the last one with the Mistletoe paper and the Snow days set, very pretty!
