This was a card that I had designed for Holiday card class then changed my mine.  It uses the two new embossing powders in the Holiday Mini.  I do have to say…they are a bit messy but OH SO SPARKLY in real life!

  • Emerald Envy- 3 3/4 x 5, add to card front on an angle

  • Crumb Cake – cut out two of the solid pine cones
