Christmas Lights card with Twinkle

The prompt at Merry Monday was just perfect for this stamp set that has been sitting on my desk all month as I have been using it constantly! I also used the colours from this week's Color Dare as I thought they looked quite festive together.



I double matted the card for visual contrast, and had fun stamping the Ruby and Slate Christmas lights. I added a trip of white glitter across the scalloped border, and stamped the sentiment on Ruby cardstock with Slate ink.



The finished card looks so cheery and festive- it almost makes me want to put up my Christmas lights already!

Christmas cards are one of my favourite type of cards to make, and this one was no exception. What are your favourite cards to make?

CTMH supplies used:
Cardstock: Ruby, Whisper, White Daisy
Embellishments: Red Enamel Gems, Scallop Border Punch, White Shimmer Trim
Ink: Black, Ruby, Slate
Stamp set: Twinkle
