I die-cut pine branches and berries (AliExpress) from metallic card stock, gathering them into a swag and topping with a black sentiment banner which is stamped and heat embossed in gold. I always happy when I have a chance to add a bit of sparkle to a Christmas card. :)
Close-up ...

Loll, so much texture on your beautiful card.
Your shiny pine looks so real and prickly popped up over your lovely sparkly white stenciled background Loll! The red berries really pop in the metallic red! xx
Beautiful Loll, love the sparkle on your white on white background and your sprigs of pine and berries look so pretty on top ♥
This is gorgeous Loll and love the wonderful sparkly texture using that pretty TH stencil, and the bright and pretty green pine branches and red berries brought together with the gold on black sentiment strip work brilliantly over the top. x
WOW! Love that stenciled background and these beautiful metallic pine boughs and berries, Lolly! A great way to add the sentiment too!
What a BEAUTIFUL card Loll!! I love the sparkle with the embossed stencil and the shine of the metallic card you die cut the pine branches and berries from...soooooo pretty!! Hugs. :0)
Your shimmery pine swag is wonderful, Loll! I like the way it pops on the fun embossed background!
This is stunning, Loll! The sparkle of the stenciled & heat-embossed holiday greenery is so pretty and festive! The white-on-white stenciling adds so much interest to the background and keeps the card CAS. I love that you topped the shiny swag of pine branches and berries with a black sentiment banner! Wonderful design!

Lovely embossed and glitzy background which shows off the snippets of pine wonderfully.
Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse later! xxx
I too am a fan of shiny and glittery for Christmas cards. Love the way you arranged the pine and topped it with the black sentiment. I also love the dimension you created by arranging it the way you did.
I love the shine the metallic cardstock gives your branches and berries, Loll. I never know what to do with that stencil but I love what you did. If only I remember it when I get home. ;)
Love the white on white stencilling for the background. The metallic green pine branches have such a lovely shine!
Shiny bright greenery on glittery stenciling... very festive and pretty! It may look CAS, but I know you took some time and special care with this card. It's beautiful, Loll!
Oh this is gorgeous! Love the design, the shiny green pine branch and the sparkly white stencilled heat embossed background. So many amazing details.
Another GORGEOUS Christmas card, Loll! I love how you added dimension with your pine sprigs and berries and your white on white stenciling is fabulous...such a festive card! You are such an inspiration to us all ~ xx
Just love the delicate branches with berries atop the shimmery embossing paste background, Loll - so gorgeous!!
WOW! This is simply gorgeous. Love the shimmery texture in the background, and your pine branches look so festive xx
You have beautifully combined spruce twigs with blueberry twigs. They look perfect with your embossed background.
