Create a Christmas bow using May Arts Christmas Ribbon, add to bottom of frame using Xyron Mini Glue Gun. 


To create poinsettias....


(I die cut 3 sets using the Sunflower Die.)


Adhere flowers together using Xyron Mini Glue Gun. 


Create banner using the small triangles from the Geometric Box XL DieMaking Essential Matboard, and Cork Roll Surfacez Paper #663892 along with Bronze Anther Embossing Powder. Add to top of frame with Xyron Mini Glue Gun. Add sticker letters and border to top of banner. 


Add small chipboard natural snowflakes randomly to frame and on banner.
