I had a scrap of plaid DSP from Hobby Lobby that I've had for years (I think...maybe longer??) and thought it would make a perfect backdrop for one of my new favorite sets from PTI called Holiday Greens.
I love the black with the red, green and white in this plaid pattern, and thought it worked perfectly for my card! I used a tag die cut from Casual Fridays and my sentiment from Catherine Pooler's latest SOA box set, and then added the die cut and stamped greenery from the PTI Holiday Greens set. I did a little bit of blending with the berries, holly leaves, and the "Joyful" with my inks and really like the added definition it gives those elements. A few iridescent sequins finished off my card.

I love this plaid, Marcia! It's so pretty with the label die cut and evergreens! Hope you have a wonderful week!
You have a gift for assembly of those Christmas greens! So pretty around the die sentiment. But it's the plaid that gets me! Gorgeous, and so rich. Love your coloring too. Need to go through my Christmas stash for plaids!
Beautiful card Marcia, I love all the wonderful details.
