Joy to Holiday Decor :)

I love a project that comes together without a hitch and in no time at all. This is one such project. Or maybe it just seemed fast because I was enjoying myself. So, I started with a 10" x 20" canvas, which I flicked paint on, waited for it to dry and then covered that with green paint. Then I cut paper mats, inked em, stuck them together and then embellished each rectangle with a letter and other paper and bling, etc. I finished it off with stickles and ribbon around the edge. I can't wait til the stickles are dry so I can hang this on the wall :) Click image for larger view. Thanks for looking!!
