Now onto my project I have made 4 cards, The two below are in traditional Christmas Colours  Cherry Cobbler and Very Vanilla with some Gold added. I have sponged the Embossed Very Vanilla mat with Crumb Cake, the Cherry Cobbler piece under the Snowflakes is embossed with the Snowflake Flurry Embossing Folder.
Each card has two pieces of the Venetian Lace to give the impression that it is wider.

These are beautiful cards Sally. Love how you have the same layouts but in different colours. It makes it look entirely different. Love how you have used the Snow Flurry Embossing Folder too.
