From Our Family to Yours

Hi everyone,

It's challenge time with my friends over on the CCEE Stampers challenge blog. As this months challenge hostess, I bring my final challenge for the month.

Apparently tomorrow is Bow Tie Day, so let's include some sort of bow on our cards this week … it doesn't have to be a Bow Tie as long as it is a bow.

As you can see, I didn't go with a bow tie for my challenge ... I decided to use a bow die I purchased a few years ago from Papertrey Ink and I added it to the front of my card so that it would resemble a present.

For the inside of my card I used the Merry Christmas Pop Up Card die set designed by Karen Burniston for Elizabeth Craft Designs. To decorate the edges of my card, I used the Agatha Edges die set.

I have also used the new Merry & Bright Clear Stamp set to finish my sentiment.

Here is the side view of my card so you can see the pop up portion of the card.
