Stampin' Up Merry Moments Christmas Card



Hi everyone!

I've been playing with my new Stampin' Up Merry Moment's Designer Paper again. 

Love this pack!

The trees in the DP reminded me of my Impression Obsession Christmas tree Cut out  dies, so I cut one out for the focal point. I added three snowflakes and a little twine bow. The snowflake ornaments are actually the centers for the Blooming Poinsettias from Memory Box. I think they are so cute!


The sentiment is stamped in red from Poppy Stamps. The background dies are from MFT's Blueprint's #20.
