Our optional twist this month is sparkle if you'd like to play along, and I came up with this card
I used a border stamp from Chloe Stamps called Starry Sparkle and stamped it on opposite sides of a stitched square rectangle in blue ink. I added beads of glue to the stars and sprinkled glitter on them before they dried.
The central panel is cut with a My Favorite Things Blueprint die and I stamped and embossed the sentiment from Papertrey Ink. A few little hearts finished it off.
As always, our lovely DT has some great inspiration for you over on the blog.
I'd like to play along at
Thanks for stopping by.

What a lovely Christmas card! Love how those little red hearts really pop!
Adding glitter to all those stars really upped the sparkle factor on your card, Carol. The sentiment panel was all that was needed for a great design.
The essence of elegance! A great idea to use a stamp to create a beautiful background. The addition of brocade made the card look festive. Great inspiration, Carol!
