Tis The Season

 Hello crafters!  I selected a piece of white card and embossed it with the Falling Snow embossing folder.  Next I cut the two of the Looped Ovals in red and matted them together and glued them to the middle of the card.  I cut the Candy Canes in white and then paper pieced red and green stripes into the candy canes.  I crisscrossed them and added a bow coated with Hunter Green glitter and some greenery.  I cut the Tis The season sentiment out of Brunswick green card and glued it the bottom of the card.  I cut two sets of holly leaves and berries and glued them into the top corners.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  8 1/4" in size.

Absolutely love this post. Think this was seen during your Xmas launch or at least something similar and loved it then and just as much now. Wouldn't usually use candy canes but this post could make a convert of me....
