I'll be there with bells on

I did a card like this last year and loved it so much I revamped a little this year to send to some friends.  This little Paper Pretties "Emalina Elf" image always makes me smile.  I can't remember where I got these brass bell brads (that really jingle), but I sure wish I could find some more.  I also used a Stampin' Up window punch and a Memory Box Christmas ornament die.

A2, string, stitching, copics, stickles, ribbon and used Silhouette machine to cut all the layers

  10. What a great card!!! :) Love your amazing coloring & the real bells!

    How did you get your layers using the Stampin' Up Word Window Punch? I'd like to layer mine like that.

    Thank you so much for sharing,

  11. For Jennifer,
    I made an svg and/or studio file and cut with my silhouette machine. Before that, I used my Cricut Expression machine. I cut a whole bunch out in different colors so they are ready whenever I need them. Black and dark green are the shadows that I use the most.
