Stampin' Up! Evergreen Elegance Christmas Card

Good Monday Morning with Meg's Merry Christmas kit! I couldn't let you down and not have M & M's today!!

My card today is another one I believe is a CASE of Kim Quade with video instructions beginning at 4:35.

My faux bow, stamped trees and sentiment are different from Kim's. I added three Gilded Gems so I could play at The 12 Months of Christmas #81 for the second day in a row. They have an optional twist of "Metallic". I'm also entering my card at Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge #558 and Jingle Belles Cookies for Santa...again, the trees are like on the cookies and I've got snowflakes!

For the inside, I did a little something different from Meg's kit.

I cut a strip of the Tidings & Trimmings DSP for the bottom and a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock for the mat. The sentiment is stamped with Evening Evergreen on a scrap of Crumb Cake and punched with the Label Me Lovely Punch. The sprigs were some I had cut out with the Merriest Frames Dies using Very Vanilla cardstock. In hindsight, I wish I had sponged them with Sahara Sand Ink. What do you think?

Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you have a good start to a new week. Here are some M & M's to get you going!
