Christmas Card Throwdown

Gift

Hi There everyone, hope all are well. I made this card to enter in the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge Number 124 (Presents/Gifts!) http://merrymondaychristmaschallenge.blogspot.com.au The inspiration for this card comes from Australian Simply Cards Issue 72, it came with templates for the bow as well, this is an excellent magazine and I am so happy I receive it every month.   I used a green cardstock with a red, and shaded the green with Memento "Cottage Ivy" and the red cardstock with Memento "Rich Cocoa" I used dimensional tape to attach the bow and I used the free stamp that came with the magazine for the sentiment on the tag, which I also shaded the edges with "Rich Cocoa" and I embossed the bow with  an npress embossing folder "Retro Swirls" . Hope  you like this card!
