The sentiment is from Beccy's Place Spirit of Christmas Digital Set. I die cut it with an MFT Stitched Circle die. I then backed it with a Spellbinder's Scalloped Circle. I actually dug around in my Christmas paper stash to find something different and came up with the Close to my Heart paper. I backed the designer paper with black card stock. The poinsettia embellishment is from Beccy's Place Poinsettia digital set. I added some leaves from Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves dies. To finish off I added some sparkly silver gems. I am entering these challenges.

We traveled this afternoon to our family home for Thanksgiving. The twins were so good driving in the car. But once out of the car they wanted to run, run, run off some excess energy. I am really tired this evening. We'll be with our family for the next few days. I'll have to get caught up again after I get home. Wishing all my U.S. friends a very Happy Thanksgiving. Hoping you spend extra time with family and friends and give thanks for all our blessings. Take care!

I know Donna, right?! Where have the other 20 days gone?? This challenge always passes way too quickly.
Great idea to use a large sentiment as the focal point of your card. Love your choice too, that's a lovely quote. You've done a good job mixing and matching the background paper... my favourite is the first piece with the little dots. Love that colour combination. Well done!
Cheers,
Beccy
How silly of me but I never even gave Sentiment a thought! . Great what you have done here combining different elements. Hope your having an enjoyable time with your family. Hugs Mrs A.
