Don't Stop Believin'

Today's card features the Don't Stop Believin' Stampset from the August to December Mini Catalogue.  It is so cute!  For my card, I couldn't resist the elf all tangled up in the Christmas lights.  I know I can relate to this - I've moved to a Christmas tree that has the lights already on it so I don't have to end up like this!  Isn't he cute!

  3. Cut out tag from Real Red cardstock
  4. Cut out tag from Whisper White cardstock.
  5. Stamp image using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.
