Little Tangles Challenge #3 - Holiday Colors



Welcome to the third Little Tangles challenge!  This time our theme is holiday colors, and we want you to create a project using red, white and aqua.



I had a great time creating this card.  I used the large candy cane from the Sweet Home set.  Lots of fussy cutting, but really easy to put together.  Just added a little bit of adhesive to each end of the candy canes and put them together to create the flower shape. 

I used large Dodz adhesives to adhere the flower to the base and the button to the flower. 

Here's a close up of that candy cane flower.



Would LOVE for you to play along with the challenge.  Danielle has some cute freebie images available over at Little Tangles, and as always, there are free Neat & Tangled stamps at stake!

 

Supplies Used
Paper/Cardstock:  Bazzill Card Shoppe - Robin's Egg; CTMH - White Daisy
Stamps:  Neat and Tangled - Sweet Home
Ink:  Memento - Tuxedo Black
Other:  Spectrum Noir Markers - DR5 and CR11; The Twinery - Caribbean twine; 3L - Large Dodz Adhesive; Tombow - Mono Adhesive; Polka Dot Whimsy - Woodgrain Button
