Here's how my card was made:
For today's card I made a nontraditional Christmas card using;
1.Dreamweaver Stencils new FJ858 Greetings Embossing Folder that I used as the base of the card. To get the blue color I rubbed Sky Blue Brilliance from Tsukineko over the the indented side of the folder (not the raised), then embossed using Core'dinations white cardstock.
2. I then stamped the butterfly from Stampendous' Jumbo Butterfly Trio set with Versamark on Core'dinations vellum and embossed the Shabby White Embossing Enamel.
3. Next the same butterfly was stamped on Glitter Silk paper from Core'dinations with Delicata Golden Glitz pigment ink from Tsukineko and embossed with clear powder.
4. Both were cut out using the new Butterflies Die Cut Set from Stampendous. When using the die it cuts off the antennas, so for the vellum piece I cut around the antennas then placed the die on the butterfly with the antennas on top of the die so they wouldn't be cut. The vellum wings were bent, glued to the sparkle paper and blue self adhesive pearls were added.

6. The sentiment from the Holiday Words Perfectly Clear Set using Versamark ink and emboss with Copper Tinsel Embossing Powder, layer onto gold paper.
Made this at the last minute using Stampendous stamps Clear Set SSC1182, Dreamweaver Stencils new Embossing Folder FG675 Pine Cones and Core'dinations Chalk Core sandable paper.

These are both stunning Jamie! Love the use of the dual alphabet die "MERRY".
Both beautiful projects! I love how the pinecone turned out with the sanding!
So many cool details on your first card, Jamie, and your second (overachiever) is rustic ally cute!
The butterfly is beautiful. This would be a great card to send to your friends who do not celebrate Christmas - maybe change the wording but you'd still be able to send them holiday greetings.
the traditional card is pretty too.
thanks for sharing some wonderful cards.

The butterfly card is so gorgeous and the pine cones are so pretty. I am going to have to pick up some of that chalk board cs.
Love both your projects! I've never used the Shabby embossing powders on an image stamped on vellum, but now I want to try it!
You have chosen such wonderful yet unusual tones for the butterfly. The blue body really pops against the more subtle background colors.
The butterfly card is absolutely amazing!!! LOVE the sparkle and how unique it is for a Christmas card!!!
The pinecone card is also very pretty! LOVE the sanding! TF!S!
Gorgeous cards, thanks for sharing your talent and creative ideas!
