This is for 3 of the Dare To Get Dirty challenges. The sentiment was stamped on the Sizzlits diecut and that was layered on a Nestabilities circle and PTI's mat stack 1 diecut. I attached eyelets and tied it on with some baker's twine. The card base is riding hood red and the DP is by SEI. The snowflake borders were made with an EK Success punch. I crocheted a red Christmas afghan for our home, that has wide red strips with narrower strips of a holiday varigated yarn. This is to represent that.
