Sweet Christmas

This was another fun little holiday card I made recently. The card measures 3.5 by 5 inches and the focal point is a peppermint candy made from baker's twine. I punched a 1-inc circle out of cardstock, then wrapped red and white twine around it to make a peppermint candy. I cut apart a clear plastic treat bag to make a candy wrapper and tied the ends with more twine. The sentiment was stamped in red and then I added glitter to the "sweet" part for extra emphasis. The white background was scored with my Martha Stewart scoreboard. I really thought this turned out cute!
Supplies:
Stamps: sentiment from Inky Antics Christmas Character Maker stamp set
Ink: Brilliance rocket red
Paper: Coredinations berry and shamrock cardstock, choice snow white
Accessories: quickie glue pen, crystal ultrafine Art Glitter, 1-inch circle punch, cherry Divine twine, peapod Twinery twine, Martha Stewart scoreboard, small plastic treatbag
