Season's Greetings

Here's my card for the current Deconstructed Sketch.  I put together this simple holiday design using a seasonal sentiment from Paper Smooches and a piece of pretty tone on tone patterned paper.

The red striped tone on tone paper is from a Simple Stories paper pad.  I added a kraft strip to the top of the panel, then hid the seam between the two panels with a solid red scalloped strip edged with a narrow piece of gold paper.  The "season's greetings" sentiment from the Christmas Sampler set was stamped in red pigment ink on a cream panel, then matted on kraft cardstock.  After adhering two tiny handcut fishtail flag strips to the bottom of the sentiment panel, I set it on the patterned paper panel.  The finished panel was matted on gold paper, then adhered to a kraft card base using dimensional dots.
