CHRISTMAS JINGLE SLEIGH BELLS

My favorite time of the week! ... Karen Giron's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #38! I followed Sandi MacIver's instructions for making the Christmas trees with the Tag Punch, Small Tag Punch, and Horizontal Slot Punch. Super easy and adorable too!

I love the new Sleigh Bells Cotton Ribbon from the new Holiday Mini Catalog! It coordinates so well with the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' Kit
which is where all the designer paper and textured cardstock for this card came from. The Chocolate Chip "Season's Greetings" sentiment is from Chit Chat Rub-Ons, and the Real Red button is from Playground Designer Buttons. I used a sliver of Old Olive Cardstock to "thread" the ribbon.

Be sure to link your sketch card to Karen's post so everyone can see your creation! Here's more sketch inspiration from the rest of the Sweet Sunday Stampers ...
