<p>On my Christmas card today, I used:</p>

<p>I cut a piece of blue cardstock with the tag die from the Mini Hugs Tag Die set. And then, I cut one of the ornaments from the Deck The Halls paper with the ornament die from the Deck The Halls die set. I added it to the tag and then I punch a hole on top of the tag to add the twine. I added the tag on the card with thin 3D foam tape.</p>



<p>I stamped the sentiment from the Deck The Halls stamp set on the card with the red ink pad.</p>

<p>I added the O’ Christmas Tree paper on white cardstock and then I cut it with one of the Rectangle Framelists dies. And then I added it to the red card base with the permanent adhesive runner.</p>



<p>On white cardstock, I stamped several of the snowflakes from the Deck the Halls stamp set with light blue ink pad and then I cut them with the matching Deck the Halls die set. I added them on the card with thin 3D foam tapes.</p>

<p>For the inside, I cut a piece of white cardstock with one of the Rectangle Framelits dies set and I added it inside the card with a permanent adhesive runner. And then I stamped another sentiment with the Totally Black ink pad.</p>



<p>I hope this gives you an idea for your Holidays project. Thank you for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!</p>
