Pink Christmas

Created this Clean & Simple CAS non-traditional pink Christmas card using Tim Holtz Christmas Background embossing folder, TH paper distresser & TH sander. Used the TH paper distresser on white cardstock edges. The sanding paper I used had been used with red cardstock so it gave the card the right amount of pink look when I sanded the embossed image. Added light pink ribbon.






















 
paper: cardstock - pink, white 
Tim Holtz: Christmas Background embossing folder, paper distresser, sander
ribbon: Spool O' Ribbon - light pink
