I love making Christmas cards! Well, for that matter, I love Christmas and everything about it. Am I the only one that listens to Christmas music while making my Christmas cards? I don't care if it's 105 outside, I'll be singing along with let it snow 
. I really need to get a move on! I make all my Christmas cards different, so it takes me forever!
Anyway, I was looking at the new catalog the other day, and noticed the card on page 52 where the bottom edge is folded up and torn. I LOVE that look, so or course I ran right to the stamp room. I cut my cardstock to 4.25 X 9, then scored at 4.25 and 8.5. I would recommend stamping on that little edge before you fold it up though. My first two attempts were very smeared! Then I just tore it and folded it up. I used mini glue dots to keep in in place, while still giving it a little bit of dimension. I'm gonna be so sad when I run of this gorgeous DSP

great card, love the torn edge. I think I need to scope out all the great layouts in new cattie-thanks for the tip
Love this card! It would be easy to make it non-Christmasy too. (Is that even a word??) I LOVED that paper. The new holiday paper just isn't quite as good, IMHO.
This card is awesome!!! I love the folded/torn edge and will have to try this one!! TFS!
Fabulous Emily.....absolutely fabulous!
Many Blessings,

This is great Emily! Love the images and the layout. Especially the torn edge and scalloped edge. A great holiday card! :)
