Heartfelt Creations Inspiration Wednesday

Hello friends! It's another Heartfelt Creations inspiration Wednesday.
Today it's a little bit of a country Christmas. I love the wood grained paper in the 'O Holy Night' paper collection. With some burlap, gingham bow, greenery, and a pine cone, it all says country. The little squares at the top are part of the paper collection. This is a very simple card to put together and you'll find all the instructions below.

Heartfelt Creations Inspiration Wednesday

Hello friends! It's Heartfelt Creations inspiration Wednesday and today I'm sharing a very simple to construct card.
I let the design paper from the 'Merry and Bright collection' do most of the work for me. I love the image of the cardinal and the blue reminds me of a clear, crisp winter day. I also love metallic gold paper and use it quite often because of the sparkle and shine it adds. And don't you love the font for 'Merry Christmas'? Perfect!
