Did anyone else guess I would make a pink Christmas card?  Haha.  How about a tropical pink Christmas card?  I mean ... is there anything better?! Hee.  I love a white sand Christmas!  

Here are a few details on the card:

~ USE BLENDS TO ADD DEPTH TO THE LETTERS!  I cut the letters from Lemon Lolly cardstock using the A la Mode Alphabet Dies.  (***TIP: Add Adhesive Sheets to the back of the cardstock before cutting out.  Then your letters become alphabet stickers! ♡ ) Then use blends markers to add some color to the bottom of the letters!


~ EMBOSS CARDSTOCK BEFORE PUNCHING SHAPES OUT TO ADD TEXTURE!  I embossed some Basic White cardstock using the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder and THEN I punched out some leaves using the Tropical Leaf Punch (online exclusive).  I love the fun detail & texture it adds.  😍




~ USE BLENDS MARKER TO COLOR TWINE!  I used the Pool Party Dark Blends Marker to color White Twine.  Look at that gorgeous color & fun pop it adds.  I just dragged the marker over the length of twine I needed to tie the bow.  Imagine all the colors of twine you can have! 😀


~ THE MORE DAZZLE SPECIALITY PAPER IS GORGEOUS! Like it is totally swoon worthy.  I used that as my card front background because the shimmer it adds is SO STUNNING! 

One last look at the card:
