Join in the fun every day at taheerah-atchia.com to see what special surprises await behind the door!

And now my card for you! It's been a while since I've used my kraft cardstock, so I thought I'd show it some love. It's really wonderful for creating cards with a rustic feel. This card came together very quickly, and I actually made a whole stack of them to use this holiday season! I stamped and white heat embossed the sentiment as well as branches and holly images from Wishing You Love. I colored in the holly and berries with some colored pencils, and then flicked some white ink spray all over. Once it was dry, I tied on a piece of bakers twine and called it a day! 
And well, it’s not a party without a prize - and with prizes every day there are several chances to win! You must leave a comment on Taheerah’s blog in order to be eligible to win! Don’t forget to grab the other surprise destinations from Taheerah’s blog and head over to them to leave comments there as well to improve your odds even more! You have until 23:59 EST on 31st December 2017 to enter.
