Today's prize is generously provided by 'Lil Inker Designs, so for my card, I used one of 'Lil Inkers' awesome Cover Up Dies to create my own Christmas tree!   I cut a dark green triangle shape and ran it through my die cutting machine with the Dotted Scallops die.   It reminds me of garland!   I adhered another piece of lighter green paper behind it so the color shows through the holes.   Next I added some gems I found in my stash, a die cut star from Seasonal Stars and a hand cut tree trunk. 

I used the Dual Dotted Border Builder Dies from 'Lil Inker to create the pieces for my background, and adhered them to a piece of red cardstock stamped and heat embossed with a sentiment from the Big Christmas stamp set. 

I just love how festive this card turned out!   The bright colors and the shiny "ornaments" just make me smile!!  That's all for me - have fun checking out the rest of the Advent - wishing all of you a fantastic holiday season, from my home to yours!
