Don't forget to participate in the card challenge for the weekend at the Card a Day Blog and a chance for some great prizes - one from each of the Card A Day Blog hosts - thats 12 pieces in all.
My card for today is A Merry Little Christmas to you
I started with a Kraft cardstock base and inked all the edges. After embossing the green layer added a strip of glue to the bottom edge and placed it where I wanted it to go then lined up my striped layer. I wrapped the red ribbon around both layers and attached this piece to to the red mat. The ornament is punched out twice- one in the red cardstock and again in the glittered cardstock with the ribbon sandwiched between the layers.
