WMS Christmas time

I know it's only May, but my goal is going to be to post 5 Christmas cards before the month ends. WMS is hosting a Christmas card challenge each month (since January) in their forums and I am just now getting a chance to play along. For the Janurary challenge we were to create a card using something from an old Christmas card or tag. Well, with it being May I no longer have any of those so I did the next best thing: I found some old wrapping paper I used last season. I created a little present for my card with it of course. The sentiment came from WMS's Seasons of Love and I kept the colors simple: red and white. The white background is embossed with a snowflake cuttlebug folder after I sprayed with cardstock with Perfect Pearls Mist in perfect pearls. I used string for the "ribbon" on the present and then some more that I sprayed red to go over the whole card. I also added a little bling on the sentiment circle to give it a little something extra. A simple card, but one that I think packs a punch.
