This is for today's challenge of free for all, and they left it open. Kind of fun for a change too. I had this one card idea I wanted to finish in my head for a while, couldnt think how to finish it so today I just thought a perfect time to just do it...:0).
The candy cane center is a scrap i that i saved from last Christmas,, it just fit in that nestie and then I layered it with the red and green in it. I then set that on the ciddled green layer, which is one of my fav. it frames stuff so neatly. I wanted to add some sparkle...I know Thats not me right....lololol...so I added a couple snowflakes in the corners and sparkled them up yahhh...:0) and the ribbon.
was going to stop there then wanted to add a bit more red so added the cut strips. was going to do one big one underneath then decided to make it a bit striped like the candy canes. was fun...:0).
Thanks for visiting...:0)
