Red, Red, and Red Christmas Cards

Here are three Christmas cards with red as the main color.  Red does not photograph well so I hope you can see the beauty in these cards.



Love this card with white embossed trees on a plain red card with a little snowflake button in the upper left corner.  So simple.  So pretty.


This card was a little more involved than some I have made.  After stamping the white card with red snowflakes, I used a square die cut to make three layers of the snowflake piece and two layers of red.   A green metallic snowflake adds a little bit of extra color.


This card has several layers:  the basic card is a light green with a darker green for the first layer.   Then the red piece was embossed (tweed/herringbone pattern) and the Christmas tree was cut out using a die cut.  The red piece was then taped to a white piece of card stock that had been embossed with a brick-like pattern and then added to the card.  The wreath was made with little punch outs and taped in a circle.  A little snowflake was added in the upper right corner.
