I wanted to go with the classic red and green Christmas colors, with just a touch of rustic country thrown in, so I ordered all my die cuts in Kraft cardstock. The die cuts that I am using today are: Christmas Ornament #01 - Large, A2 Card, and Square Bag #01 - Large.
I stamped snowflakes on the kraft cardstock of all three die cuts. Then I used some scraps of white cardstock and cut them so they curved slightly, and trimmed the edges so they fit each die cut. The red and green trees were stamped and cut out. I wanted some tiny red ornaments on my green trees, so I ordered some Ruby Red Rhinestones from Creative Cuts and More and adhered them to my trees. I just love these rhinestones - they are the perfect size for these tiny trees!
I also ordered some Clear Rhinestones and used them on the tree in the center of this card. Just a little ooomph to set the card apart.

Wonderful holiday projects - love the rustic country charm!
I am loving the kraft paper. The snow looks so beautiful on the kraft paper. Wonderful.
It's a wonderful thing when you don't have to add wrapping paper to your shopping list. Kraft and red go so well together.
