Made It - with Time to Spare

What with all the prep for Christmas, the cards I had to make etc I didn't think I would get my banner done in time for the Challenge over on Ready Steady Stamp.  I just had to do it, especially with it being a follow on from the last two challenges and, I guess, there are more people like me finding it a struggle to fit it in as there aren't many takers this time.



Hey, Ho, I got up early this morning and did it.  Whether I will stick stars on like I have done on the previous two I don't yet know as stars don't really go with holly which is my dry embossed background.  Maybe I would have been better doing baubles with my Elusive Images stamp but I do like the Fragments that Tim Holtz uses and I have been addicted to putting paper or cardstock behind them since I did the Distressed Palooza with him a couple of years ago.

Lucky for me I found some narrow gold cord to hang my baubles with and I managed to tie a smallish bow with some organza ribbon.  I put some German Scrap on the top as it looked quite plain and that seemed to help fill it out a bit.
