This card says it all.....
This card started out as a 4" x 4" White linen card. The golden holly design is a beautiful vellum, when overlaid on the white card - stunning!Vellum being difficult to stick, I made the card a tent fold and wrapped the covering over to the back and fastened with DST and finished with a thick line peeloff, then fastened again on the front inside. Using an insert the adhesive is not noticeable.
Since the Vellum made such a statement, all I needed was a simple sentiment - a white oval Nestie on a scallop gold mirror mat. Under the mat, a mesh gold ribbon, and small gold beads twisted on fine wire completed my card.
Simple, quick and easy and yet a classic Christmas card - My No.15.

Lovely! Quick, simple, & very elegant. Just what we need at this time of year. I have some beautiful Christmas papers which don't need much adding to show them off. I'll certainly be trying out this idea, so thanks for sharing it.
