Jolly Holiday Greetings Challenge

Today I have a card to share that Im entering over at the Moxie Fab challenge to create a holiday card. This card is using my favorite Christmas color combo: Aqua Mist, Pure Poppy, and Dark Chocolate (all PTI colors).
That adorable tree image is from Becky's Oehlers Wonderfully Whimsical set and the sentiment is from Holiday Button Bits (both available at PTI). I used the Swiss Dots CB folder and an oval Frame-Its to create the unembossed area for the trees. You can't really tell from the picture but I've got LOT's of sparkle going on. And did you notice the sentiment? It's a holly JOLLY christmas? Just right for the JOLLY holiday greetings Moxie Fab challenge!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit. You've only got about 3 months to get all those handmade Christmas cards done so you better get started now! ;o)

Stamps: Wonderfully Whimsical, Holiday Button Bits
Ink: Pure Poppy, Ripe Avocado; Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: CS - Aqua Mist, Stampers Select; PP - Lush Brown Houndstooth 

Other Stuff: Pure Poppy Twine Ribbon, Nesties Labels, Copics (various), Atyou Spica, Stickles, Swiss Dots CB EF, Frame-Its Oval
