For today's Inspiration Challenge, we went to South House Designs. I have not made very many Christmas cards, so this was a good chance for me to make one! This was my inspiration:
The stocking and holly are both on the December 25th Cricut cartridge. I cut the stocking at 5.5" and the holly at 2.75". I used glossy accents on the berries. I tried coloring the top of the ornament, but it did not work! So I just used some liquid pearls instead. Lastly I used quite a few dimensionals

This is super cute Kathleen. Everything about this is terrific and I especially like the way the ornament, holly and stocking all show just a little bit on the white layer, and how the puppy starts at the very top of the red card stock. Gorgeous!!

He is just adorable! Love the way you colored him and love that he is popping out of that stocking! The holly is a perfect embellishment for this cute card!
