Star of Wonder and a giveaway!

Hi, I'm back with another card made using Simon Says Stamp's December card kit.
For this card, I used some of the yummy ribbon from the kit to create a stitched ribbon tree, then added a sentiment from the stamp set. I embellished with some cute Studio Calico tiny wooden stars which I covered in Star Dust Stickles.

Simple and shiny. :)
Now, here's some exciting news.
I have an exclusive Simon Says Stamp set to givaway. Yay! I ended up with two sets of these AWESOME stamps... so I'm sharing the love. :)
Just leave a comment here by Sunday night and I'll draw a winner next week.
Good luck!
