Love the textured embossing on your designer papers ... lovely holiday card ... so glad you joined us at jingle belles.
Beautiful, Debbie! The gold ribbon adds elegance to your pretty Christmas card! Love the embossing on the DP! Doesn't it feel good to get a head start on those Christmas cards!?
I love the elegance of you card and your little circle panel is just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us at Card Crafter's Circle!
What a great sketch! I love the embossing on the patterned paper - I forget to do that, and it's such a great effect! - and yet another Christmas card ready. Good for you! I noticed a lot of those challenges too, shuddered, and went back to sweating :) It's just too hot to think about for long!
This is elegant and beautiful, Debbie!! The papers are so pretty and I love the gold against the red and white!! Absolutely gorgeous :)

Beautiful card and you've used the sketch perfectly.
Wonderful card. Quite elegant looking, and I really like the colour scheme you've used. Well done! Thank you for entering this week's Christmas challenge at Card Crafter's Circle (p.s., last week we had summer vacation - LOL!)
Lovely card, the papers are fabulous and love how you framed the flower!

So good to know that there are more people out there who are in Christmas mode. I think it's never been that "bad" in July ever - it must be because I'm wearing a fleece jacket and drinking hot tea. Anyhow, waht I actually wanted to say was: what a gorgeous card!!
Absolutely stunning! Love the rich papers. Great sketch, too.
Pretty papers and design piece! Thanks for sharing with us at Merry Monday, Debbie!
Hi, Debbie..it is so interesting that we cross paths almost daily..this is a beautiful card!
Oh, Debbie, is that gorgeous kraft flower a sticker? You have used it perfectly. It is a perfect focal point. A truly stunning card!
Really, really pretty card! I love these colours together and the DSP you've used is stunning. Thanks for joining us at Merry Monday!
