slimline Christmas...

 

and

I’m really getting into these slimline cards.
The base card is kraft card stock with cranberry and white card stocks as the sketch shows.
Using a die from the Tim Holtz “Holiday Greens, Mini” set I cut evergreen boughs from green card stock.
The circle, die cut using a die from Lifestyle Crafts nesting circle die set, is white card stock with a kraft card stock scalloped circle cut using a Spellbinders die.
With more cranberry card stock I die cut two mittens using Sizzix “Mittens” die and embossed them with Richard Garry “Lumberjack Days” embossing folder.
The ribbon was cut with Tim Holtz “Bow-Tied” die on kraft card stock.
To finish I stamped the sentiment from Stampin’ Up’s “More Merry Messages” using Adirondack raisin ink.

*This is the first time I am able to use an older post for a newer challenge and this is just about my favorite card I have made this year!
Happy Holidays!
