Have a Holly Jolly....

Yeah I will stop right there with the title.. Having the name Holly I despise that Christmas tune but man does it get stuck in my head when I hear it..lol So, here's another swap card a made a few weeks back. It was Christmas in July.. I stuggled with this one for a bit, nothing I was doing was coming out right. I found this great layout I think it was FTL#149.

There is all most a full pack of this retired DSP in my stash and this was a great way to use some of it up.



My card base is Always Artichoke with a layer of the DSP. Then I added a strip of Sahara Sand that I stamped with the Holly image from Bells & Boughs. I stamped it in Sahara Sand as well. Then I stamped the sentiment over top in Always Artichoke from Heard from the Heat. This is another set in my stash that hasn't seen much ink.

Along the top and bottom I added a Cherry Cobbler scalloped border that I punched out. I feel like it needs a little something extra but I also like how clean it us so I just left it alone.

I hope everyone had a great weekend... and your week is starting off good. I cleaned all weekend, everything I could get my hands on. I did clear my desk but it has become covered again. Amazing how fast that happens..lol I also cleaned my computer files up WOW it's amazing what accumulates on there.
