It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Good morning everyone!

It's time for a new challenge at Sparkles Christmas and the theme this month is ornaments!
For my DT card I used a cute Christmas Elf Topper from Mo Manning and paired it with papers from Doodlebug Design and Recollections. It's very hard to see in the photo but the background was embossed with a Sizzix ornament folder and then cut out with a Zig Zag die from Whimsy Stamps. I used My Favorite Things dies for the fishtail flags, pierced rectangle and heart.

Thanks so much for stopping by and don't forget to pop on over to the main challenge blog to check out the rest of the teams beautiful cards!

What a sweet little elf and I love the coordination of traditional Christmas colors. I really like the embossed ornament background, I don’t believe I’ve seen this one before, great folder to have in your stash.

Hi Tammy, that Mo is an awesome illustrator, isn't she? I even have a few of her old mounted rubber stamps! You have done her proud with this, gorgeous red and green shades. And the ornaments are quite visible, it just takes the eye a few seconds to focus. Makes it kinda cool. :) xoxo
