Polly's Happy Holidays

I know, I know...another Christmas card. But really, I can't help it. I still have uninked Christmas rubber and full sheets of wonderful holiday papers! Let's just say, I'm starting my stash for next year.   :)

The sketch for this card is from the Bella Sketch Challenge over on Splitcoast. There's a new sketch each Monday. I decided that Polly Packages from Stamping Bella was the perfect image for this card layout. 

Then I chose my Scenic Route Garland papers for colour inspiration. The image was stamped with Memento black onto Gina K Pure Luxury cardstock then cut out with oval nesties. I made sure the image wouldn't slip this time...wink!

The card base is Gina K's fabulous 120lb cardtock...it's soooooooo dreamy! I couldn't seem to incorporate any ribbon on the card...gasp! but the left side looked a little plain so I added an Artichoke snowflake using my Martha punch, with a red Bella Bonbon in the centre for some bling. I finished off the image by adding a teeny bit of sparkle to the holly berries on her hat, with Christmas Red Stickles. 

Oh, and I should tell you, the yellow strip is So Saffron and the green is Always Artichoke.  

Thanks for stopping by!
