Less is More - die cuts and punches

I've been into my craft room for the first time in a few weeks and of course the LIM challenge was first choice to create for, this week the challenge is to use dies or punches.  Chrissie's card reminded me I had bought 2 Memory Box ornament dies and not used them.  I punched the base layer from Basic Grey DP and the pattern from yellow cardstock, adding a border of the DP, a Stampin' Up sentiment and some tiny gems.  I drew in the red thread for the ornaments.  In real life, the sentiment, thread and DP all look the same red!
My card is for:
Less is More - diecut or punches
Winter Wonderland - a Christmas card
Christmas Inspirations - anything goes
Inky Impressions - punches or dies

    Wow is this ever stunning and so clean looking. I might just have to dig in the couch for loose change and buy that die.
    Hugs!
