Holiday Greetings-

Hi everyone---we are half way thought this week and I am packing my bags again for a work trip to San Fran!  This time we are doing an event at a local mall for one of our new products--if your in Dallas--there will also be one at Stonebrier Mall in Plano this Saturday.
Today's card was simple--see for yourself.
I used one of the Creative Memories Cartridges for the gifts--the paper is all MAMBI Christmas stack I picked up at Joann's.  If you could see the amount of Christmas paper I have you would laugh that I bought more!
Here is a close up--I used some glossy accents to high light the polka dots and give a litter texture.  I also cuttlebuged the white background with the Holly folder. 
I used the glossy accents on the background to highlight the holly berries.  
I finished off the inside with a few of the left over bits. 

Thanks for stopping by and make sure to check back on Friday there is more goodness in store. 
make it a great one-
