This is a card I created for one of my Christmas classes. The idea to use the map from the Open Sea set came directly from Carrie Gaskins, who is always so full of clever ideas! To make the top of the Christmas baubble, I first used the Ornament punch and then I slid the top of the ornament sideways in the Curly Label punch to get the shape you see here (punched out of Brushed Silver cardstock).
(Quick note to mention that the Open Sea set has been carried over and is still available for purchase.)
The background was embossed with the Finial Press embossing folder and overstamped with the Netting background stamp. The Poppy Parade patterned paper came from last year's hostess stack and the "Peace on Earth" sentiment comes from the Four the Holidays set. The sentiment and map were embossed with the Pewter embossing powder from the Holidays mini. (Fingers crossed that this product carries over - I love it!) I held the sentiment flag in place with a Poppy Parade glimmer brad.
