Created this Christmas card using a couple Recollections stamps.Used American Crafts glitter gel pens to add the bright spots of color. Used another pen to add some white. Added ribbon.
Used a base that is only 1/8" bigger than the layer on top of it. I've always had a problem with placing the layers crooked if they were not 1/4" bigger. I asked a friend, Susan, of Expression Avenue and she said she eyeballs it & puts a corner down. My problem was I was putting a side down all at once so I tried the corner method and it worked.

I'm looking at your card on my laptop so the pictures aren't big and I'm having trouble seeing Rudolph...but I'm guessing he's the one leading. :)
