Two More Fun Challenges

I had a great time making this card for the challenges...at first I didn't think I'd get into making a Christmas card...but once I started working on it...time flew by...the next thing I know...I was done...this was a great project...and I hope you all enjoy my card. 
 
 
 
I layered the Poinsettias... the diamond stickles is suppose to make them look like they're wet from the early morning dew...I used the stampin' dimensionals behind the scalloped circles also...the only thing I'm not very pleased with was the bakers silver twine...it is very fragile and kept breaking on me.
 

 
 
This is such an adorable little stamp...I've had it for years....and love using it when I can.  

 
This is the recipe:
 
Stamp set: merry, merry, merry,....bells and boughs.
*****
Card stock: whisper white...old olive...garden green...assorted scraps...and white printer paper.
*****
Ink: old olive and early espresso.
*****
Markers: stampin' write.
*****
Punches: corner...bitty banner framelits...3" scallop...scallop circle...and Christmas folder.
*****
Additional supplies: stampin' dimensionals...s/u mini glue dots and sticky strip...acrylic blocks...snail...diamond stickles...silver bells dew drops...silver bakers twine...score it...big shot...and fiskar cutter.
 

 
 
Over at Mojo Monday #346 the challenge this week is to follow the sketch...and it's a great one too...I enjoyed playing with it.

 
Over at Merry Monday #109...the challenge from Bonnie this week was to use Christmas and Flowers on our cards or in our projects...how fun is that.
