Here's my card:
Our WM Christmas card challenge this month was to use either a bird or a "fabulous forest". I decided to create my own little Christmas tree forest. I used A Cottage Christmas to stamp my own little forest scene which is paper pieced onto some cute patterned paper from the Echo Park, Holly Jolly Christmas paper pack. I used PTI Tag Sale #4 as the base of my tag and layered on a nestie circle diecut. I stamped a great circle image from WM Faux Fun Circles and was so excited to see it fits perfectly on the Tag Sale die. I added a snowflake border, red stitching, tiny red pearls and woodgrain embossing to the kraft cardbase. The sentiment is from WM Compliments of the Season. At the last minute, I added some red twine, snowflake brad and a tiny little red pearl to the tag.
If you haven't heard about the Waltzingmouse Christmas Card Challenge, here's a link. There is a really great prize up for grabs at the end of the year to one lucky person who participates every month. I am crossing my fingers it is me!

Great card! I think adding the twine, snowflake brad and pearl was the perfect touch! Way to go!
I love the sweet scene you created on your tag. What a great idea. And, I'm so jealous of your stitching--it really adds that finishing touch to your card.
