Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
We are having a taste of Fall here in central NC.
And that means that Christmas is right around the corner!
Time to "get 'em done"!
I used a retired embossing folder and die for the pine branches here, coloring both
with a sponge dauber and two shades of green ink.
My favorite ornament was die cut and a glittery snowflake popped on top
adds some sparkle to the shine.
Challenges:
CAS Christmas - Sparkle and/or Shine: I have both here.

Beautiful card with that pretty ornament. Yes, we do need to get those Christmas cards done. I am working on mine also. TFS
It's so lovely, Bonnie! Yes, we need a little Christmas - every day of the year! Your sparkle and shine remind me I'm way behind!

Love that ornament! That seafoam color is gorgeous! I have never successfully sponged over embossing without a mess but I sure do love the way that looks. Very tasteful placement of your sentiment too!
OH my friend, this is absolutely beautiful! What an exquisite design! LOVE IT!! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Peace On Earth challenge! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often. We appreciate your support!

P.S. Don't forget about our embossing challenge ... this would fit perfectly and we have a new challenge that began today ... here's the link: Can You Handle the Pressure. I hope you'll come share this beautiful inspiration with us.
The snowflake inside the ornament is so pretty and shiny! Love your card Bonnie. Yes, Christmas will be here pretty quick now.

What better way to show off that gorgeous gold ornament than hanging it on pine branches. So beautiful, Bonnie.
Just perfect and beautiful too.

Fall is here too and I can't believe how fast this year has gone. Your ornament is just gorgeous and looks wonderful nestled among the pine branches.
LOVE the soft colours on your embossed pine boughs background Bonnie! The ornament is so beautiful and elegant. Love the sparkly snowflake in the center. xx
Love your embossed and die cut pine boughs for the background of your Stunning die cut ornament with the glittery die cut snowflake...Wow! You are the Queen of die cut card designs, Bonnie. Love and Hugs..Nancy
Yes, it's time and I'm trying. Trouble is I keep throwing out some I made earlier because now I don't like them. I doubt you have any of those because this is a lovely example of how gorgeous all of your Christmas cards are. Love the embossed background with the additional branch die cut. The ornament is exquisite!
I really like the soft sage-y green you've paired with the gold! Pretty card, Bonnie!
A beautiful card Bonnie. Really like the delicate green with the gold. x
Beautiful ornament Bonnie, love the pine sprig diecut with the embossed ones, this year certainly has flown by! Cathy x
Gorgeous ornament Bonnie and love the little greenery sprigs :)
Beautiful take on the Peace on Earth mood board. Love those soft coloured pine branches and the contrast with the rich gold of the ornament. I'm wearing two different Design Team hats here - thanks so much for joining in with Peace on Earth and with CAS Christmas.
This is stunning, Bonnie! There are a lot of sparkly and shiny elements on this card, and I especially love the sparkly snowflake on the shiny gold ornament! The coordinated light greens of the pine branches and the matte are so pretty. I'm always happy to see your cards in the CAS Christmas gallery, my friend!

Gorgeous, love that ornament and the way it is hanging from the tree. Such lovely shine too. Still very little progress on my cards xx
Your pine branches are so soft and pretty Bonnie, and the gold ornament with the sparkly snowflake on it make this card truly SHINE! Hugs. :0)
Soft inking and glorious shine - great card, Bonnie
So festive and pretty. Love the snowflake addition.
Just love the soft green branches with the bold gold ornament, Bonnie! That snowflake adds the perfect touch!!
I love the dry embossed and the added die cut pine branch and so prettily coloured Bonnie, and the gold hanging bauble with the glitter gold snowflake over the top looks beautiful, and love the added gold twine bow and finished with the gold embossed sentiment..a delightful Christmas card. x
Gorgeous Christmas card, Bonnie! I love the detail on your ornament and how you added sparkle to your design with the glittery gold snowflake...so pretty! Thanks for joining in the fun at CAS Christmas!
Beautiful! Your ornament looks so real like I could just reach out and touch it!

Spectacular sparkly shiny gold ornament. The pine branches made the perfect background.
The essence of Christmas elegance. I love this die and adding a snowflake is so much fun!
