Today, I am featuring the new Silent Night Forest die. It's part of the Christmas Part 1 collection. If you are looking for some quick cards that you can multiples of, this card is for you. 

I used the colors from the Splitcoaststampers color challenge #922. We were to use soft succulent, blushing bride and evening evergreen for our color trio. Optional was to use a die cut. 

evening evergreen, soft succulent, blushing bride

I selected designer paper that is in the soft succulent color. I liked the subtle background script. I cut the designer paper so that it would cover the white card base. I also made it just a bit larger to accommodate the die cut image.  

White card base: 4 3/4" x 5 3/4"

Soft Succulent Designer Paper: 4 3/4" x 5 3/4"

The image was cut in the evening evergreen cardstock. To cover the blushing bride shade, I added some stars in that color cardstock. 

I made a 2nd card using the same die but with different background paper. You can give your card a different look just by changing the designer paper. This card is the same size as the previous one. I used a black designer paper with snowflakes then cut the image in white. I like the bold contrast on this one. 

Well, that's it for me for this post. I hope I have given you an idea for a clean & simple card. I will be back on Sunday with another idea for a quick card.
