Just Us Girls (JUGS) Challenge

In an effort to get the rest of my Christmas cards done, I thought I'd try the sketch from the Jugs challenge for one.  It really was pretty simple, almost to simple, I feel like I cheated since I didn't do much stamping and fudged just a little on the layout.....basically because I was doing it from memory but hey, what are they going to do, ban me from playing?  (Please don't, I'm sorry)

The base is naturals ivory, a layer of hunter green with a panel of DP from Hobby Lobby. I ran a strip of ATG and used Martha's punch to make the garland instead of a banner.  Threw on some glitter to cover the rest of the adhesive, in retrospect the ATG tape maybe wasn't the best idea.  Added a few gems, button brads and circle greeting from Just Rite.  There you have it, an I cheated card.
