The Night Before

I have no idea was possessed me to make a Christmas card, but I did. I've been so busy lately that I only have multiple Christmas publications in two magazines this year so far that I know of. I think another one is picking some up, but let's put it this way, I haven't gone out of my way to make Christmas anything except for some items that one specific magazine asked me to do for them, which turned out to be quite fun because they were altered items rather than just cards. Anyhow, here's a Christmas card that I made for the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge 71. I think I made it because I was coloring some ornaments from this stamp set a few days ago. Once I saw their challenge this morning for dry embossing, I figured that I'd just use the same ornaments but dry emboss them. This definitely isn't my usual style but I'm okay with how the card turned out. I let the designer paper do a lot of the work for me. What do you think? Again, thank you for stopping by and God bless!
