Atlantic Heart Sketch Challenge + Create with TLC Image #10

This week's sketch at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #76 really made me think.  But after a bit I had an idea, and I think it turned out pretty well.
Here's the sketch:
I combined CTMH sentiment stamps and tiny ornament stamps, fitting them together on 1 acrylic block.  I stamped it a few times on one side of the white CS, used a dauber to distress the edges, and lightly sponged over the stamping.   Using the CTMH Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, I cut the ornament, stamped it, then embossed it, before adding the bling and popping it onto the CS.  I used some silver twine for the ornament bow and hanger and some bling on the tiny ornaments.  I backed the white CS with blue, also distressed around the edges, before mounting it onto a white card.
Woot! Woot! Another Christmas Card completed!
