When I saw a christmas card by Kristina on the Simon Says Stamp blog I fell immediately in love with it. It was clean and simple but so elegant.
So I ordered the supplies and tried to make sure it was easy enough my family could help make them with me. This always takes a few tries and a little tinkering.
Here's the original, as close to Kristina's as I could make it.
But it felt a little barren. So for the next card I added a sentiment:
Better, but how about kraft for #3?
Hmm. Washi doesn't pop on kraft... maybe cream? Yeah... cream.
LOVE IT!
What do you think? Which style is your favorite?
This is my entry for the World Card Making Day Challenge 1: Holiday Greetings at Ellen Hutson's Classroom Blog.
I loved this design so much I made some funkier ones...

The kraft is my favorite, but I agree the paper doesn't pop. The cream is a good alternative. They are all gorgeous!!!
I like the Kraft and the bottom one. Maybe a different strip of colour on the Kraft? Do love their simplicity :) You are putting me to shame with your Christmas preparations - just said in my most recent post how unprepared I am :P
I love the cream colored one Nicole, it still has that crisp ad cold feel to it like the white card. Very nice design!
Love them all especially the clean & classy white one with the sentiment, very stylish
These are fabulous! I really like the second one!
I love the Kraft one- but they are all wonderful:)
I love how you have used the neg and positive to make these cards. Thanks for sharing.
