Oh, Becca, this is so very, very pretty. The holiday scallop punch is darling. I like how you added it to your card.
I couldn’t decide whether to buy that tree emboss folder or not. Guess I know the answer now. Beautiful card! Those colors are my favorite together. Thanks for sharing.
Becca, this is gorgeous. I hadn’t seen that tree before – it’s beautiful! Love the red crystals.
Beautiful Becca! Lovin’ those itty bitty red crystals!!
hugs, Jami
It’s beautiful, i love the colour combo and only wish i could get hold of that folder as it is out of stock everywhere over here:-(
you make such pretty cards, and i love visiting your blog xxx
This is just gorgeous. I like the way you used the rhinestones on the snowflake on the tree. Great job!
SWEET!!!!!! I like everything about this card! Thanks for sharing.
BEAUTIFUL Becca!!! I love those little red crystals.

Impeccable as always!

Love the cuttlebug folder. I have been on the fence about whether to buy it or not. I am ordering it right now. What a great card.
Becca, as usual, you have shared another beautiful creation. Since I have the CB tree folder, please tell if you sponged the ink across the tree; I’ve read where pigment ink is added inside the folder. Thank you, Gigi
O.k. this is THE MOST BEAUTIFUL Card I’ve seen with this CB EF yet! And I love the color combo too. I will definately be casing this one. Gorgeous!
Beautiful Becca, I love your punch, I almost bought that one last time I was a Michaels, but put it back. Love your tree.
WOWZERS this is GORGEOUS!
Such talent!!! my, oh my…..love this one, now I know how to use mine…TFS..
Your card is so beautiful!! I just wanted to thank you for inspiring me to try different things, for being such a wonderful blogger, and for creating such beautiful art for us to look and learn by. I have given you an award over at my blog if you have time to stop by! THANK YOU!
This is beautiful, and the colors are fabulous.
The word in your blog name says it all — AMAZING!
So sweet Becca, love the colors, the embossing, the bling, the punch, just love everything about this adorable card!
Love it!
Becca ~
Oh, how GORGEOUS!! Thank you for sharing!! I have the same question as Gigi, as I would love to try to attempt to make a similar card … Did you sponge the ink across the tree or add it inside the folder? Could you share which color ink you used for the tree? The combination you used is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!! (Also, could you share where the red crystals are from?) Judy
It’s BEAUTIFUL Becca! I have the embossing folder but never thought to put all those bling! Now I gotta go and try it! :D Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful! Love the gingerbread man border.
Beautiful, love the gems to decorate the tree, very cute tag too!
I think I am in love with that tree!!
wow, sure is pretty, saw some others on other blogs using this cuttlebug template, but I like yours best!
You work magic with the CB! I’ve looked at some of the folders and thought…hmmm…what would i do with this…now I know…I’ll go to your blog and see what wonderful thing you’ve created! :) Love the the red filigree corners – beautiful!
WOW!
Becca….just wanted to drop you a line to see how you are doing with all the new companies and projects you added to your schedule. I’m not surprised that you have been asked to contribute your designs….you have wonderful ideas and a distinctive look. God is blessing you and the talent HE has given you.
Absolutely gorgeous! I almost purchased that cuttlebug folder, but put it back as I wasn’t sure what I would do with it. Boy am I sorry now. What an awesome idea!
Lisa A.
So pretty!!!!!
Gorgeous tones and love that embossing folder – stunning!
Absolutely gorgeous!! TFS
Oh so lovely!
Beautiful & that gingerbread border is so cute. I didn’t see that one while I was trying not to buy anymore holiday goodies. Now I’m tempted to go look again!
Beautiful card, Becca, not seen that tree die but may have to search it out because the effect on your card is wonderful :0)
**Hugs** Heather x
Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have the tree folder only ever done it on gold or silver miri board
but yours has so much more effect the colours are wonderful have you used chalk or ink to colour, never seen the holiday border punch will go looking tomorrow, thanks for sharing.
God Bless
Hi Becca,
This is beautiful! I am curious as several of the other responders how you got the lovely color for the tree. Will you please share that information. I would also like to know what color was the paper when you started. When I think of Kraft it looks much darker. And you can add ink in the embossing folder??
Thanks for sharing your talents!
Amy Owens
Again it is beautiful, you come up with the most beautiful cards every time. I love your blog. You always inspire me to do more. Thank you.
Simply georgous! That border punch is really nice, I’m going to have to look at those. Well done!
Becca are you a mind reader? I made this the centerpiece of my Christmas card this year only I did it on vellum and reverse colored it….I love those red sparkles…where did you get them…they look triangular. That is a really cute border punch…I’ll have to look for it. Have a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
Everyday I can’t wait to check your blog for some of the most gorgeous cards I’ve ever seen. Keep up the great work. I have a question on the coloring of the Cuttlebug lace tree. What do you use to give it color. I’ve tried swiping my pad gently over the image, but it never turns out the way I’d like. What’s your secret?
Thanks and have a blessed weekend.
Alicia
Hey Becca,
Love the tree Girl Friend, but tell about the color of the tress, please. I never thought about putting color in the folder.
Oh Becca… This is stunning!
Oh, my! I was looking at this folder today and thinking what wonderful Christmas cards it would make, but you’ve taken it to a whole new level. This is beyond beautiful! I’ve never seen Kraft look so elegant!
Lovely card and use of the Lace Tree embossing folder. I also love the punch you have used at the bottom – a new one to me.
Becca – you have made this CB folder look amazing – this is another gorgeous creation my friend!!!
Another beautiful card, Becca, and such glorious colours. I love this folder and you provide such wonderful inspiration.
Becca, this is SO sweet–love the gingerbread border too!
Wonderful Bekah! Love it :)
O M Gosh………….I love that tree…have it too but did NOTHING like this with it!
Now I can’t wait for next Christmas…lolol
Hi Becca, just found your blog and already I have had inspirations! I want to make something like your Cuttlebug lace tree for Christmas. I count 24 rhinestones used. Can you tell me the size? They look like 2 different sizes or is this just an optical illusion? Love it and also the Flourishes Reindeer as well as Poinsettia and Boxwood. I have already bought the stamps! Guess I have enough ideas now to last me the rest of my life? :)) So can you please just tell me about the rhinestones. I’ll use them for card for very special people and use Stickles Red for everyone else. He he….think that will work. Thank you so much for all the inspiration I am finding here! This will be my 3rd year of making my own Christmas cards. Now just looking for Valentine, Birthday, Halloween and Thanksgiving inspirations!
Lovely card, I have been using this embossing folder too and looking for new ideas with it.
