When designing and creating cards, I like to include little extras that really make them stand out in a crowd. Each small detail can make the biggest difference between a blah card and a WOW card.
When shopping for embellishments, I always like to find something a bit different. Sometimes, however, it pays to remain simple with ribbon.
Other ways I like to bring in details is with patterned paper, blending and coloring.
A small amount of detailed lace can sometimes be all the different you need to make. It helps add dimension to you project, as well as breaking up void space or transitions. Lace is a simple addition whenever you don't want to add bulk.
The following cards represent new designs that I have been working on. Using the pine branch punch by Martha Stewart, I built a Christmas tree, window box and small floral details. Although I feel like I have yet to master the technique, I believe with a bit of adjustment, this could be a great addition to card details.
