Evergreen Noel - The Friday Mashup 120

Well, it's Christmas in July at the Friday Mashup here and that suits me just fine as I have already started making my Christmas cards. Not only is the challenge to make a Christmas card, but to use stripes as well.

Technique: I used the 2 step stamping method and the stamp-a-ma-jig to stamp the Christmas tree.  Then I added dazzling diamonds.
The image was die cut using the ovals framelits and backed with an Old Olive Apothecary label die cut.  The oval die cut was pricked using a pattern, mat pack and paper piercer.

Stamps: Evergreen, Greetings of the Season
Inks: Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, Real Red
Papers: Old Olive, Whisper White, Real Red, Season of Style DSP
Accessories: Polka Dot embossing folder, Ovals framelit, Apothecary Accents franelit, Mat pack and paper piercer, dazzling diamonds, stamp-a-ma-jig, Red Glimmer Brads, 1/8" Real Red taffeta ribbon, scallop border punch, Frosted finishes embellishment, dimensionals
