white xmas

hi all
i have made this card for my sister ,she loves monochrome cards with that high end designer look ,i am soo happy with how it turned out that i am gonna make it for my other sis in gold so look out for tomorrows post.....i embossed an 8x8 card with straight lines down one side,then i embossed a peice of card with the swirls cuttlebug folder to create the background for the card,i used the papermania baubles embossing folder on  matt silver mirri card ,added a gorgeous ribbon from the ribbon box and a  marianne d die cut poinsietta with gem centre,pearls  and a sentiment and thats as easy as it gets.
