25 Days of Christmas: Day 8

Hi Everyone!

The great thing about these cards that Kristina made is that they are so easily adaptable to other stamps and papers. For this card, I didn't have the stamp from Technique Tuesday that she did for her "Believe" card, so I just used a smaller sentiment and then made the left side a little bigger and added more circles. I punched circles using 1" circle punch as well as smaller ones using punches I bought at Michael's recently. I don't know their exact size though.
I tried to stick with the similar colors as well. I like the vintage use of Kraft, Red and Green for Christmas. There are a few supplies I used for this card that aren't listed below. The green paper I used for the scallop strip was a piece of scrap paper I had. The ribbon is called "Lemon grass" and I bought it at Wal-Mart. Finally, the sentiment is from a package of stamps purchased from Michael's last Christmas.
So, again a really simple card for today. I do hope you like it! Have a great day and I'll be back tomorrow with Day 9!
