Before I get to my project, just wanted to give a big shout-out and thank you to Taheerah for organizing this event. I'm so honored to participate this year!

My card features the adorable Merry Christmoose stamp set from Reverse Confetti. I just adore this little guy and those super cute, whimsical trees.

I started by blending a gradient background in shades of aqua and turquoise. Next I used some embossing paste and a stencil to add some texture to the background. Next comes a stitched frame that I die-cut with the All Framed Up Confetti Cuts die, some sequin-topped Snowflake Trio Confetti Cuts die-cuts, a simple sentiment flag, and a twine-adorned clip.

And last comes the main event: the stamped and Copic-colored moose and trees. I think the moose looks especially sweet peeking out from behind the tree. I wonder what wonder he beholds?
