Stampin' Up! Class - Dasher

Hi all,

Today I had my December's Stampin' Up! Class and the last one for this year - wow, doesn't that sound scary! So, seeing as it's December, I had to make it the last Christmas themed Class using the lovely Dasher stamp set along with the Jolly Holiday DSP, the gorgeous Scallop Trim Border Punch and the FREE ribbon that is on promotion for this month for any Christmas Gift-Giving Bundle.

Today's class, the ladies made a Dasher Christmas card and a gift card holder that was inspired and cased from Monica. I tweaked it here and there and added a belly band to close it.
