Recessed Die Cut




Happy Sunday, everyone.  Only 10 days to go until Christmas; gosh, December is flying by!

Today I have a quick and easy card to share that was inspired by a Stamping School tutorial by Linda Heller.  Thanks Linda for this easy and fun idea.  I love the look recessing gives the ornament die cut.

I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:
Di's Digi Designs Challenge -- Non Traditional Christmas Colors
Bloggers Challenge -- Ornaments
Card Makin Mamas CMM77 -- Christmas and New Year
Digi Haven Challenge -- Christmas Cards (The sentiment is a digi as well as the patterned paper.)

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a great week!
