Christmas Inspiration #1

I have been inspired lately to do some Christmas Cards, so here is the first of a couple of Christmas related posts.

I love using Kraft and Whisper White and originally wasn't going to include any other colour, but I loved the effect of adding the Riding Hood Red striped ribbon (from the mini catalogue) and matting the reindeer on some Riding Hood Red cardstock. The snowflakes and the reindeer have been done with white embossing powder.

Back with more soon.
