Merry Monday #163


 Hi everyone!
Time for another Merry Monday Challenge.
This week Lori challenges us to create a Christmas card with Red & White.


I am loving the look of a frame around my cards lately.  The Holiday Aperture die works great for this and leaves the stitched edge.  The middle is cut with the Cover Up: Christmas die from Lil' Inker Designs.  I attached that piece to my frame and popped the whole panel up on red cardstock.  The Holly Leaves were cut with a die from Lil' Inker as well from Silver Glimmer Cardstock and the berries are covered with glossy accents.  The sentiment is stamped on a flag banner from Lil' Inker.


Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over at the Merry Monday challenge blog. I hope you will join us!

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!


Ink:  Pure Poppy (PTI)
Paper:  White, Pure Poppy, Silver Glimmer
Accessories:  Cover Up: Christmas, Holly Jolly dies, Pinking Edge Sentiment Flag dies (Lil' Inker)
