Card size is 5" wide by 7" high (thanks momis mama for that idea). The dp mat is 4.75" wide by 6.75" high to leave a quarter inch border. Then I matted the stamped image onto the burgandy cardstock, along with the top sentiment.
Paper:
Basic cardstock from Michael's
Designer paper from Paper Pizazz Christmas 8x8 stack
Stamps:
The Miracle of Christmas from M's dollar section
From Our House to Yours from Rubber Stampede and I think I got that at M's several years ago
Ink:
Frost White from Colorbox with the title stamp
Fire Brick Red from Tim Holtz Distress Inks for main image
I used colored pencils and also my water brush with the fire brick red to color the main image
I used my ticket corner punch on the main image and the dp background. I also used two red mini brads from Oriental Trading on the sentiment stamp.
The paper strip under the sentiment is embossed using the swiss dots CB EF border.
I also used my Stardust Clear Glitter pen, made by Sakura to give it a little bit of sparkle here and there.
Inside is a sentiment that I printed on my computer that says:
"From home to home
And heart to hear
From one place to another.
The warmth and joy of Christmas
Brings us closer to teach other.
Merry Christmas"
TFL! And thanks for all the help with the layout
