Today I am sharing a Christmas card that I actually made last year but haven't posted. Do you find that when you look back on things you like them better than when you made them? That happens to me a lot. I came across this card and decided I really like it so I have no idea why it hasn't been shared before. I have just had a look back on my blog and see that I only posted one Christmas card last year, I suspect I ran out of time. This year I seem to be done earlier, but that is because everything has had to be posted.
Here it is:
This is the only Christmas embossing folder that I have (might have to do something about that) and it also featured in the card I made for the last squash it challenge. The bauble die is by Crafters Companion and the sentiment is Uniko.
I am sharing it at:
Let's Squash it #3 - use any embossing folder and dies or fussy cutting
Christmas Card Throwdown - pick a previous 2020 challenge. April - red and white
Allsorts - Got to be Christmas
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.

Hi Hilary,
Sometimes that happens to me, too but there are cards I don't like so much after a while. Especially christmascards I've made in january/february ...
This card of yours is very beautiful and I like the embossingfolder.
Beautiful colour combo with the sparkly red and white background.
I do find looking with fresh eyes gives you an opportunity to tweak or realise you like it XX
This is so beautiful!!!
Lovely card Hilary - I really like embossing folders, they strike the perfect balance between simplicity and interest. I have quite a few, but they're underused, I don't know why I don't think of them more. The red peeping through your card is so festive. Thanks for playing along at 52CCT for December.
So glad you decided to share this, Hilary, it's gorgeous! Thanks for joining us at Let's Squash It! Jo x
Love this, the sparkles and embossing folder are fabulous. x
It fabulous and sparkly. Love it. [Bunny]
Your pretty card has a few of my favorite things: embossing, lots of white, and that gorgeous die - where has THAT been hiding???
Now, my question is - why hasn't it been sent? Someone would be so thrilled to receive it!

What a pretty card and a beautiful die cut bauble. The shimmer looks fabulous and I am so glad you shared it with us Hilary x.
What a pretty bauble, Hilary! I love the shape and how the glitter peeks out! The embossed frame shows it off beautifully!
Gorgeous card Hilary!! I LOVE how the red glitter paper sparkles against all that white. Beautiful embossed frame! xx
It’s beautiful.
