Jingle All The Way – MTTC Christmas Challenge (Use Brads!)

I had a blast creating my card for this round—it's a festive, layered card that came together quickly but has lots of texture and interest. For my design, I dove into my stash of Christmas papers (most of which I scooped up on clearance at Michaels after the holidays—love a good deal!).

The focal point is a cheerful green embossed sentiment that reads "Jingle all the way." I love how the embossing adds extra dimension and shine!
