For my card tonight, I used the Clearly Sentimental about Christmas set. I stamped my sentiment on Sweet Tooth Card stock, which was layered with Pink Pirouette, Sno Cone, and Jelly Bean Green. My paper is from the MME Be Merry pad. I used MFT Pink Ribbon, Maraschino Twine, and Blossom Twine for my ribbons. My button is from PTI, and my brads are from Michael's. I used the GORGEOUS new Icicle Die-namics, along with the 1/4in Rosette Die-namics. I had NEVER used these before, and was anxious to try. There are some great YouTube videos telling how to make one of these with our dies, and since I had NEVER used it(GASP!!!), I may have had to go see why I couldn't get it to work. I did cut mine in half, so the rosette would be smaller.



For the inside, I used more of the same supplies, and another sentiment from this gorgeous set.

Here are the Die-namics I used:




Well, that is it for me for now! Be sure to check out Kim's Blog to see which other designers are participating in today's teasers.
