A Very Merry Christmas To You
Good Sunday morning all! For today's card, I found some decorative papers in my craft stash and used them as the background (sorry, I d not recall the name of the papers). I cut the largest die from the Swirly Tree-O out of Antique Gold card and backed it with the same colour card. I added the larger outer die front he set and cut it in green and added the tree to it. I cut a piece of milk card and matted it in red. I added the tree to it with mounting foam, then added some small stars around it in gold as accents. Using the Classic Poinsettia die, I cut two flowers, assembled them and added them next to the tree and added green leaves as accents. I cut the A Very Merry Christmas To You in red and glued it to the bottom of the card. The card was completed with milk card mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x

I really like the papers you have used. I’ll have to dig out the papers I have and see what would work. Great style. The poinsettias are gorgeous and fit perfectly.
