Last challenge of the year!

This is the last challenge of the year at Shopping Our Stash – Tis the Season!  A Holiday card!  Yes!  I’m solidly in the holiday creativity mode, so I was excited for this one.  The Sabres are playing tonight – another nail biting game –  so, to ease the tension a bit I decided to make a card while the game played in the background.   Well, my desk was strewn with the left overs of holiday tag and present decoration making (more Holiday hacks) and I decided to use one of the tags on my card:

 

 

I’ve been heavily into reds and greens lately so this time I decided to go a different direction.  I used the Stampers Anonymous Festive Overlay set – CMS357 and Ornate Trims – CMS326.  A cringled bit of seam binding, an alcohol inked and glittered pinecone and some greenery…Happy New Year a few weeks early!

 

Thanks for stopping by!
