Isn't this toy soldier and Christmas tree die cut beautiful? It is from the recent ephemera packet by October Afternoon. A few months ago I sorted half of my 6x6 papers by color (the less used pads I left together by collection.) The new filing system made it easy for me to pair papers and design a card around this darling die cut. The die cut is even colored on both sides, in case you wanted to place him facing left. I think that is design genius and ideal especially if planning a scrapbook layout/mini book. All I needed was a little sentiment, and this SRM sticker fit the bill.
I am entering this in the current Jingle Belles challenge: Oh Christmas Tree.
Happy Tuesday! Be sure to stop by tomorrow…I have something special to share.

Lovely card, June - that little soldier is gorgeous alright, I love all those retro Christmas images. He is perfect with those papers, too.
