Grace lends itself well to Christmas Cards with the addition of some Heartfelt Die Cuts, Top Coat Overlays, Twinkle Brads and Buttercup Ribbon

This card was actually inspired by a card in the current Idea Book (pg 76). I love how I can use an idea from the catalog and make it completely unique by swapping out papers and stamps. My downline loved this card so much we had to quickly make a copy the last time she was here. Funny thing about that is we used a different Top Coat design and her card ended up looking quite different. So much fun!

Tip: Top Coat Overlays have a protective film on them that you will want to remove (it'll make them clear once it is off). The easiest way to do this is to feel for the non-raised design on one side and use the Rub & Remove Eraser to lighting rub at one corner edge.  The eraser will pick up the edge of the film and you'll be able to easily grab it and pull it off.

  1. What a beautiful card! I love what you did with the Grace papers and the snowflake - and I love your use of the overlays. Thanks for the tip on removing the protective film - I just got mine out today to play with them so that will help - TFS!
