BEATE'S WEEKEND SKETCH CHALLENGE #20

This card is for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge #20, and uses many products from Stampin' Up!'s 2007 Holiday Mini Collection (see recipe below photo). Purely Pomegranate and River Rock are difficult to photograph! The colors look different on my computer monitor versus my husband's monitor. The Gold Elastic Cord around the chipboard star looks odd in the photograph. It really does look better IRL! It is just crossed around the star, then tied in a bow. The new Elastic Cord is so-o-o much easier to work with than the retired cording! The chipboard stars from On Board Garland Greetings are covered in Holiday Harmony DP. The "Merry Christmas" sentiment is embossed with Gold EP. The new Satin Ribbon from the Holiday Mini is gorgeous! ... very elegant .... and also comes in Chocolate Chip!
