Away in a Manger

My all-time favorite Christmas color combination is aqua/teal with red – I like it so much more than than traditional red and green.  I’m CASE-ing Heather M’s card found here.  I originally saw her card on Papertake Weekly’s challenge blog along with their sketch #45.

Papers: Eskimo Eskapades – Nitwit Collections Digi Paper

Stamp: Mary and Joseph – LOTV

Die: Labels Seventeen – used to cut sentiment

Embellishments: Rhinestones and Twine – I look to use twine as it is a nice filler and just a couple of knots can add a lot of interest without adding the bulk that a ribbon bow can.

Thanks so much for the visit!  Dee
