I started out with the SCS Sketch #249, but didn't want to add as many layers as it showed so that the beautiful Christmas Cocoa Flocked Paper would be the highlight. Second time I've started a sketch and had to change it. If it feels right, I go with what I've got.
I used the SU ornament punch to make an ornamet out of the red and white flocked paper, added a sparkly ribbon and brad to it and popped it up on dimensionals on the white card stock embossed with snowflakes. I then added my sentiment, the wide ribbon in the middle and the corner sparkly red ribbons. Popped it all up onto soft suede card stock. This was a really fun and quite easy card to make once I picked out the pieces. That takes the longest time!
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and let me know what you think if you have a quick moment!!

Fruitcake, such a beautiful red holiday card! Leaving pms in your comments area I see! Really want those numbers up. Well let me add my 2 cents worth: beautiful ornament and especially lovely is the coordinating papers. Very striking card indeed. you know this could also go into "Red Divas" if you're so included. Hope your kitchen is beginning to look oh so wonderful. Lucky you.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
