tic-tac... two?

we're in the second week of ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ tic-tac-toe, with another round of cards based on this board:

i went with the middle horizontal row this time, so i had BRADS + DIECUTS + RIBBON to work with. yeah. i can do that!

patterned paper: basic grey; cardstock: core'dinations; glossy white cardstock: paper accents; peace die: impression obsession; snowflake border die: memory box; ribbon and white sheer flowers: michaels... the latter came from the bridal aisle i think; snowflake brad: oriental trading; border punches: recollections; adhesives: elmers brand gluetape, sewing machine

so... which bits are which? well, the ribbon is kind of buried, but i think you can see it, it's blue grosgrain with some snowflakes on it and partially hidden by my two diecut pieces, the sparkly "peace" sentiment and the suuuuuuper-skinny snowflake border. finally there's a big honkin' snowflake brad that came from oriental trading, quite some time ago. i think the packet had three brads in each of four colorways, and i've used all but one set of three, which i suppose we have to admit i'm not in love with. but they didn't get put into the big garage sale clear out, so part of me thinks i should rise to the challenge and USE them, lol. maybe next week? ;)

meanwhile miss stephanie has a lovely card to inspire you, as always. why not hop over to ♥JINGLE BELLES♥ and bask in its loveliness?
