I gave my patterned papers the day off and used plain blue, and white pearl flecked cardstock along with my Memory Box Frostyville Border die to create a background. A liberal application of more Star Dust Stickles and some blue gems to the border pumps up the sparkle factor, well it is a Christmas card!
To further embellish, I added some layered ribbon with a matching button topped bow, a pair of mittens made with a Memory Box die and a sentiment stamped with a Papermania stamp.
