Forgotten Challenge "GRATEFUL" card

A FB group I am a part of is doing a "forgotten" challenge this week.. use things you have forgotten to use in a while.     I think everything on my card is something that has been kind of overlooked in being used.

1. Spellbinders Dies.  I used the Curved Rectangles.  I had to cut open the packaging to get the dies out!
2. Distress Ink ~ Tea Dye and a sponge
3. Small and Medium Oval Punches
4. Stamp set:  Lovely As a Tree
5. Stamp set:  Small Script

MFTWSC196 "MERRY CHRISTMAS" card

I am watching the St. Louis Cardinals ~vs~ Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game.. and wanted to get a card made for this week's challenge.. and needed a quick one.  I received the My Favorite Things Poinsettia Die-namics last week and wanted to give them a try.  I love the way they cut.. just like butter and I used thicker shimmery paper card stock cover.  

    okay.. back to the game!!! GO CARDS!!!
