I was inspired by this cute card I saw today: Cute Candy Canes by amyfitz1 at Splitcoaststampers
I used Marvy punches for my circle & scallop. I've had this striped paper for ages. I stamped one candy cane onto the smooth side of the acetate w/ the stamp positioned & filled it in w/ Real Red marker. Punched a MS bow, added some double stitched ribbon & I'm not sure this ended up the way I had planned. But, what's done is done.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.
