Sending Christmas Cheer with Gorgeous Greens

Today I’m sharing a simple card that proves you don’t have to spend hours and hours to make a gorgeous card. Sometimes the paper, dies and embellishments can do the work for us. Here’s a sweet Christmas card with a collection of gorgeous greens:

Here’s a look at the patterns and colors in the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper:

Here’s a look at the Words of Cheer Bundle:

I’ve really loved working with this set, but I REALLY love these label shapes:

The beautiful greens on my card are all pulled from the leafy page I pulled from the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper. I love this trio of greens! If you like this mix of Soft Sea Foam, Pear Pizzazz and Garden Green as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:

While the sentiment on this card makes it a Christmas card, the paper is versatile enough to be used for nearly any other sentiment. I love that versatility!
