Card made with a kit from a magazine

I made this card with a Hunkydory topper and paper from a set called `Love Christmas`, which came free with a magazine a while back, I'm not sure which.
I cut the paper into sections to mimic the sketch over at 52CCT,  then attached the reindeer topprt onto a die cut star shape made with dies I received from Mervi (thanks!).
I stitched around the edges and added frantage, a die cut + Dymo sentiment and I stapled on a few sequins.

    B E A U T I F U L christmas card, Pia. I like the Dymo sentiment. I have a really old machine. There you have to adjust the letters on a rotary knob and press each letter. Very vintage but works perfectly. AND your stapled sequins looks fine ;-)- Thanks for mentioned me in your blog post !

    Beautiful take of the sketch, the topper looks very sweet and I don't know how you can add staples to the sequins, it's a stunning technique that looks very different and modern! LOVE that big diecut star! Well done!
