JOHN DEERE TRACTOR CHRISTMAS PUNCH ART CARD...

This is the gift certificate holder card that I made for my Daughter-in-Law for her stocking gift cards.  She loves John Deere stuff, so this seemed like a natural for her.  I cased this tractor from Jackie Topa.  I love her punch art!  I do think I went a little overboard with the Christmas lights, but it has plenty of Christmas spirit, right?  The directions are pretty much the same as yesterday's, just a little shorter.  Off to finish preparing for my Christmas Game Night with a few friends.  People will be arriving soon...
