A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
Hi crafters! A most unusual coloured Christmas card for today. I just had this whim one day to make a Christmas card in really different colours and wanted to follow through with it to see how it looked. Raspberry and black snowflakes and I must say that I was rather pleased with the final result. I may just have to give in to my whims a bit more to keep you on your toes! I started by embossing my coconut white background with the Interlocking Circles embossing folder to give it texture. Next I used the Create A Flake Three and some of the smaller snowflakes from the Pendant sets and cut some out of black glitter card and some out of raspberry card (from my stash). Each snowflake was finished with a black pearl centre as an accent. I used a bit of matching raspberry silky crush ribbon from my stash and cut it down the centre and wrapped it around the bottom of the card. I tied a double bow from it and added a fancy black button to the centre of it. I stamped my sentiment on a small precut tag that I had and inked the edges with Victorian Velvet distress ink. I tucked the tag under my fancy button. I arranged all the cut snowflakes so they were cascading down my card from upper corner to the opposite lower corner. I added a black rhinestone swirl radiating from the centre as an accent piece. I added a thin raspberry mat and then double pierced black mats to finish my unusual Christmas creation. Finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x
Good Morning Sue! This works very well indeed I love the snowflakes in this set they are so pretty and the Raspberry colour is gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing every day. :)
Good morning Sue I love this colour combination it's so different, you certainly keep us on our toes, looking forward to your next whim lol. Hugs x Heather T
Morning Sue I say follow your whims - this one was spectacular. Snowflakes are always unique and who says that they are not black and raspberry. I love it. TFS Hugs Amanda x
Hi Sue, Love this very contemporary. I am already wondering what other colours to use with the black I quite fancy teal, or custard or lavender. Keep going with your ideas Hugs n stuff Carol B
morning Sue Well it certainly was a whim for today's gift. I would definitely never have thought of putting the two colours together for a C.card. I have to say I rather like it. It makes an unusual statement in colour but a traditional format of snowflakes so thank you for keeping is on our toes Sue and I say just continue continue continue!! Janet x
Morning Sue, I'm a 'traditional' Christmas kinda girlie, but I am loving your 'contemporary' Christmas cards, this one is beautiful with the cascading snowflakes and the embossing on the background is stunning. Lots of love from Patricia xx
Beautiful card, who would have thought black & raspberry would work as snowflakes? But they do!! This has given me ideas now, just need to fix my poorly Grand Calibur and I'll be cutting out snowflakes.
Hi Sue. What a fantastic Christmas card. A traditional layout, but with modern colours! I love taditional Christmas but this works so well. Please carry on giving in to your whims! Take care.
Morning Sue this card is absolutely beautiful love the colours that you have used. I would never thought of putting them together for a christmas card. After seeing this card im now in mood to start mine Lol. Take care Sue xx
Hi Sue, Not sure that I would use these colours for Christmas, I have to admit to being very traditional with my colours. But the way you have cascaded the snowflakes is lovely and makes for a great design. Lydia X
It IS very unusual, but I must admit, I really like this one. It´s really beautiful and great in all it´s simplicity. Awesome work as usual SUe. Have a great day everyone.
Hello Sue, Thank you for sharing this delight with us. The black and raspberry snowflakes are unusual but I love them. Keep giving in to your whims, they are amazing. Have a great day everyone. Hugs June xxx
Morning Sue, lovely card, very different from traditional Christmas cards, the colours work so well together, not got my head round starting my C cards yet, but every morning you inspire me to get started. Take care, Jess xx
Good Morning Sue! I like this card in different colours! I have done one in Blush, with Blush Poinsettia's, and stamped with Justrite Stamps, embossed with Gold, and it looks so nice and gentle! Only with your inspiration would I have thought of stepping away from tradition. LoveMarg
Good morning Sue, Having a few "modern" friends who would love this as their christmas card, i think i may have to make a similar card up. It is a beautiful card with nice clean lines and just makes a big change with the raspberry touch. Please let into your whims a bit more often because you do bring us some spectacular cards. Love and crafty hugs Norah
Wow, what a different card! Really love it, i'm certainly going to have to give this one a go, it's just so lovely. Wish my whims turned out so well!! Love Sarah
Hi Sue. I really love your card for today !! You have used unusual colours but I really like how they look together. I have the create-a-flake three and it is a great set. I have never seen raspberry silky crush ribbon or used raspberry coloured card before so I will definately be on the look out for them !! I like your background folder too. Ireally must start my christmas cards soon while there is lots of inspiration and fab ideas about. Mostly from your self and Julia. Keep all your great christmas cards coming !! Lots of love Tres x x x
I have to admit that I probably wouldn't have thought of using these colours for a Christmas card but have to say I love the way it's come out. Hope you enjoy the rest of your day Margaret A
Good morning Sue What a gorgeous card the black sparkle just puts the finishing touches to it. I used to be a very traditionalist when it came to Christmas but you changed all that! I have to admit to still liking the English robins though. Margaret corgi owner
you should give in far more often... please... lovely card and just loving the raspberry card, think you should get this added to the foundations range.. x
Love this colour combination, very French looking. I have loved all the different coloured combinations both you and Julia have used rather than the traditional colours, such a difference but so spectacular.
Morning Sue, Oh I love it, love it, love it! The colours are great too. I adore contempary cards as much as the tradional ones and although stunning this looks quite simple to do.
Love the colour combination on this card. Such an unusual take on a Christmas card. I love this raspberry card that you have. You really are keeping us on our toes. We really need a money tree in all our gardens to keep up with the dies that keep coming out. Or a swap shop.
I love this card Sue, am making unusual colour xmas cards myself at present & every time I show my husband "the latest creation" he says " why isn't it red or green, (he has old fashioned ideas). May pinch this one to use.
Hi Sue Very contemporary look today and like everyone else has said, I would never have thought of putting these colours together for Christmas, but they really work. Even though I am a traditionalist when it comes to Christmas, I could see myself doing this.
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. I love the colours which do work for a Christmas card. You should definitely give it to your wims more often. Looking forward to lots more.

Lovely card and very striking Sue. I must be more adventurous with my own color schemes as I tend to be too traditional using red and gold at Christmas! ValCXx
Hi Sue I love this card you've made using the raspberry and black snowflakes. Must try something similar if you don't mind!? The embossing folder is great as a background and I love the raspberry ribbon bow and the bling in black on the snowflakes. Such a statement card, it's stunning.
Very unusual and I luv it xx I tend to make my Christmas cards in different colour combos rather than the traditional red, green and gold so this fits the bill nicely xx GailT xx
Oh wow Sue! Stunning, just stunning! Love the raspberry and black together....will have to find some that. Ooooo and a residing, "So say all of of us!" on these whims that you have! xx Love Karen xx
