Good Tuesday Morning my Stampin' Friends!

It's a new day and there's lots going on around here!

I have an exciting announcement coming tomorrow on Youtube so if you're not a subscriber, hit that button when you watch today's video and you'll know right where to find it tomorrow! Be sure to see the Giveaway link at the bottom of this post too!

Today's card is an awesome though somewhat different take on a Christmas card! But, we all have at least one person on our list that leans in a non-traditional direction... this one's for them!

To make today's project you will need to cut:

*Real Red: 11 X 4 1/4", scored at 5 1/2" to create your card base
*Very Vanilla: 5 3/8 X 4 1/8"
*Large scraps of Real Red, Pear Pizzazz and Very Vanilla to cut the 3 largest banners in the Banners Framelits Die set.

You'll also need about 10" of Pear Pizzazz ribbon. I used the 1/4" Cotton Ribbon for this card.

And now on to the show!
