It seems that to be a member of our staff at school.... Christmas sweaters are a must so I had to have the Christmas Sweaters stamp set as I will use it to create cards for a couple of my friends on staff. I paired it with the Be Merry paper collection... because, well... green, red and white to me, make the perfect Christmas sweater ;)
For some interest on the white paper, I embossed it with the Pinewood Plank embossing folder (the Cable Knit one would have worked here as well - and guess what... on SALE now!). There is just something about woodgrain. The I also got the Scallop Tag Topper and had to use it as well. Fun! Now to make it like a real Christmas sweater, I added a pom pom and chunky glitter to the hat.
