It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! It’s a fun sketch challenge to try this week!

FESTIVE FRIENDS
I think these Christmas icons are SO cute in this set! I’m sure I’ll be using them a bunch! I know I’ll be making tags with the grandkids this year!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Real Red cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Granny Apple Green cardstock is embossed with the Jolly Holly Embossing Folder and added to the front.
- A 1 x 5 strip of Real Red cardstock is cut at the bottom with a flag end and adhered towards the left side.
- The 3 x 3-1/2 piece of Traditions of Christmas DSP is added on top.
