My favourite linen textured card was used for all the pieces.
I started by stamping the trees on the panel using Olive Archival Ink.
The stamp is old and at some point I've taken it off the wood backing so have no idea which company but they may be Hero Arts?
I then dusted some Peeled Paint and Mowed Lawn over the tree line and stamped the sentiment in the same Olive ink.
The circle is coloured with Festive Berries and simply glued over the panel.
A Holly die inked and stuck on, some cord and a few pearls and done.
I am sharing this make over at Double Trouble - Challenge 14.
This is the first time I have seen this challenge and was intrigued by it!
Surprisingly I have managed to do all 3 things with this card - create a Christmas project, use the Tic Tac Toe board for TSOT (link below) and also have an optional twist of 'something hanging'.

An acknowledgement of inspiration is needed to Pinterest and Birgit for the concept behind this card. We have a lovely day here - blue skies and really mild for this time of the year. I hope the sun is shining where you are and thanks for looking!.x

Lovely design Viv. I love the pop of red with the bauble against the beautiful background...classy. xx
Such a beautiful Xmas card Viv! love the design and colours ;) hugs Viv xx
Brilliant how you have made the panel up and even more brilliant how you made the bauble. I have the linen look paper in several pastel shades but do ?I ever remember to use it!! Going back to my mishap with the card front why oh why didn't I just cut the card in half and re apply to a fresh blank card instead of prising off the front and having to re apply the 3D sticky pads !!! Der!! Hugs Mrs A.

This is so bright and pretty Viv and the bauble hanging over the beautiful green background with the trees and also with the sentiment to match is just perfect, and the bright red of the bauble with the pearls and baker's twine really pop against the white and green. x
Your layout is fabulous and love the oversized hanging bauble. Stunning card and the texture from the linen card looks fabulous x.
