I decided to create 5 and 5 to get my ten cards for February. I only wanted five money holders. I used the Holiday Hedgehogs, leaving the candycane out. I punched holes where the candycane was and tied a ribbon around the rolled-up money. These are really cute IRL.
I used DD Pinecones for the other five cards. I used Handsome Hunter for the card. I embossed the pinecone with cho. chip embossing powder. I tied a ribbon at the top of the pinecone before using pop-dots to adhere it to the card.

They are both spectacular. Love the money holder concept and the pine cones have always been one of my favorites. Can't wait to see what you do in March.

Both cards are clever & creative! I especially liked the way you used the embossing powder on the pine cones to make them more realistic. By adding them to the card with pot-dots you gave another dimension and created a focal point. Great!! Can't tell if you used a touch of glitter, but that would give a frosty appearance. These are both keeper ideas!
