May Your Days Be Merry & Bright

Hello crafters!  I found this piece of decorative paper in my craft stash so I decided to use it for the background to today's card.   I cut a Looped Oval in white and added a Double Stitched Oval frame to it with mounting foam.  I cut the Candy Canes in red glittered card and backed them in white.  I crisscrossed them and added them to the inside of the frame.  I cut a bow out of white gloss card and attached it across the candy canes with some greenery from the set.  I added two holly leaves and berries to the top two corners.  I cut the May Your Days be Merry & Bright out of red card and glued it onto a white shadow backing piece.  I added it below the candy canes with mounting foam.  The card was completed with white and red mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6"  x  7 1/2"  in size.
