This is definitely the year for mixed metals in fashion, home decor and paper crafting. The combination of silver, copper and even a touch of gold bring a yummy richness to this holiday card.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- “Season’s Greetings” (Snowflake Sentiments Stamp Set) was heat embossed with Stampin’ Up! Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
- The stitched oval die cut is from Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies. You’ll want to use the Big Shot Magnetic Platform to keep the die in place over the sentiment during it’s journey through the Big Shot.
- I added a snowflake die cut (Trim Your Stocking Thinlits Dies) from Copper Foil Sheets. A self-adhesive Gold Faceted Gem bumps up the sparkle factor!
- A pre-cut silver snowflake from Foil Snowflakes (one of My Favorite Things from the Stampin’ Up! holiday catalog) is layered over a dry embossed snowflake created with the Winter Wonder Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.
- I wrapped Copper Metallic Thread around three of my fingers repeatedly to loop it and adhered to the bottom of the oval sentiment with Glue Dots.
I love hearing from you! Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.

Thanks so much, Nancy!
Mary – this is the most beautiful Christmas Card I have seen this season! Stunning!
You make my heart sing, Tarina. Thank you. It’s a fun one to make!
AWESOME!!!!! Thanks for sharing!
You’re awesome for leaving a comment, Carol.
Oh my…this is perfection.
Thanks, Sandra. That makes my day!
This is absolutely elegant. Very classy and understated glamour. You did a fabulous job mixing the metals with just the right touch.
Thank you, Kimberly. I find that “eclectic” can be a challenge for me but this was fun and I like how it turned out. I tend to overthink the eclectic angle and do best when I just start layering until the card says “mama!”
So beautiful, I love the foil snowflakes in the Year of Cheer suite and that snowflake embossing folder is breathtaking. Outstanding job Mary
Thanks, Robbye. I love how everything blends together. This same group of supplies could be moved around for an entirely new but cohesive look!
Mary, this is gorgeous! So elegant!
You’re a doll, Michelle. So lucky to have you as a member of the Stampin’ Pretty Pals.
Lovely as always! And you made my day with the tip of how to make the gold loops by wrapping around 3 fingers. I am seeing these loops on so many cards and don’t laugh… I must have spent an hour one day making loops and taping and gluing…so using 3 fingers? Who’d have thunk it!
It’s the little tips you give and your One Minute to Wow videos that change my world!!!!???
I’m so glad the tip was valuable, Rene. I, too, struggled to get the loops from looking messy vs. eclectic! This works for me!
What a STUNNING card you have created Mary. LOVE IT!
I’m diggin’ your daily stampin’ love, Kadie!
Such a gorgeous collection of snowflakes, Mary! Such a beautiful card!
I appreciate your sweetness, Brian!
Stunning, simply stunning!!!
Thanks, Susan – you’re my “lots of white,” stamping friend
