embossing holiday pretties and BIRTHDAY WEEK at Crafter's Companion!

so i NEVER in a million years thought i'd be busting out my Cuttlebug so much.  lately, i'm a die-cutting maniac, and i've fallen in love with EMBOSSING FOLDERS all over again.  it's WEIRD! 

but i'm loving the variety of embossing folders available at Crafter's Companion, and i did some SERIOUS holiday crafting during my little getaway in Cape May this week.  this card uses some silver mirror cardstock and the gorgeous Die'sire "Holiday Holly" 6x6 folder:

(side note - there's a BIG sale for Birthday Week - Crafter's Companion is 8! - and you can save a ton on your 6x6 embossing folders by clicking HERE!)

so i THOUGHT about busting out some of my Spectrum Noir Re-Inkers on this, but just thought the silver was so pretty and elegant that i couldn't bear to risk messing it up.  and voila!  one of about 40 christmas cards i made for my stash (for work, and for an upcoming craft fair)...  there will be more to come, but i wanted to let you all in on the Birthday Week action before it ends!

come back for a visit tomorrow at 9 am for something SPOOOOOOOOOKY!  ;)
