It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

It's Friday and that means the Bartenders have a new Raise the Bar Challenge for you! This is our only challenge in December and we're going with the theme "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas"! That leaves a broad range for interpretation, so why not get that last minute card or gift completed and join us! I'm also entering my gift bag into the Holiday Diva Dare challenge on the Verve blog. Julee is generously offering a chance to win a $30 gift card to the Verve store! I decided to create a gift bag using PTI's new front and back die...perfect to adhere to a plain paper bag! I used papers from Echo Park's Season's Greetings 6x6 pad and decorated them with die cut trees using Verve's new Winter Fun set. For the dimensional tree, I die cut 4 trees and scored them in half, then glued the sides together. The sentiment is from Verve's Bright Spirits set.

There is a design team call this month at Raise the Bar! The only requirement is making one card per week and posting it to your blog if chosen. If you're interested, create an entry for this month's challenge and when you upload it to the RTB web site, place "DT" by your name.
