The idea for this card came from a Christmas newsletter I received from
Terri at Nutz About Stamping. She is so creative. She even does a video every Sunday using the Big Shot. I so look forward to her videos. This card highlights a unique way to use the Decorative Edge #120907, $16.95 punch to make the candles. In her newsletter she used the small end of the punch to make 3 candles on her card. I used the long edge to make a wider candle and used the design on a scrap of Presto Patterns DSP #117175, $11.95 to add interest to my candle design (Cherry Cobbler ink #119669, $5.95 and a sponge #101610, $3.50 to add the color). I used a piece or Presto Patterns also for the background (Old Olive #102277 ink $5.95 and a sponge #101610, $3.50 to add the color). The holly leaves come form the Peaceful Season #121124 Hostess set. It was all wrapped up in a piece or 1 1/4" striped grosgrain ribbon # 119771, $9.95 and tied in a beautiful bow, then mounted on a base of Old Olive #100702, $6.95 CS on the Whisper White #100730, $8.50 card base.
