Below is a picture of a card sample I made for a recent class using the Cut Above -- Deck the Halls kit.  I followed the suggested design for my card, but the ladies in the class took this basic design and ran.  They changed up the ornament placement, turned the card from portrait to landscape, wrapped the twine around the card, and used all sorts of other fun ideas to make the cards their own.

To see how easily these cards come together, please watch the below video tutorial on my YouTube channel.
