Merry Little Christmas!

I started with MFT Card Stock Sampler pack.  I am using paver red, steel gray,  berrylicious, gumdrop green, chocolate brown, and smooth white.  

I created a 5 inch card base with the paver red.  I used Blueprints 14 to die cut the steel gray layer.  I stamped this panel with MFT Sheet Music background stamp in versa mark.  I die cut a large circle in  berrylicious then edge with the Stitchable Dot Circle dienamics.  I stamped this circle with MFT Snowfall background stamp.  I used the MFT Stitched Snowdrifts and layered some snow inside this circle frame.  I softly sponged with MFT grout gray premium ink  for added dimension.   

Next, I die cut the Christmas Tree Cutout in gumdrop green.  I stamped each section with the tree sentiment in Seasonal Sentiments stamp set.  When I got to the top, I had to improvise a bit and freehand cut a larger triangle.  I like that it is not perfect and I love the finished look!  I finished my card with a few clear gems.  I am also playing along with Christmas Cards All Year 'Round "Embellish It" Challenge.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!
