I hope everyone is having a great weekend and survived Turkey day!
The challenge this week, the 4th week of the month, is Mix It Up SATURDAY! This is the week that will change from month to month. This week officially kicks off Christmas shopping with Black Friday so I decided it would be a great challenge to make Holiday cards or any paper project that is Holiday, ANY Holiday!! You have until Friday, December 2nd to link up your Holiday creation to get entered into the monthly drawing this week. This is the last week for this months giveaway!

Here's what I came up with:
Recipe:
Card Base: SU Cranberry Crisp 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" (folded) Yeah! and I'm using some retired cardstock! Don't forget to check out the Cricut Art Philosophy Bundle Giveaway!
Trees were cut out at 3 3/4", 3 1/4", & 3".
The stamped tree is recommended to cut out at 3 3/4" but I ended up trimming it back a bit.
Sentiment cut out was cut at 1 1/4".
