I have used a textured white card blank.  The red and white background paper from   reminded me of a candy cane so I just knew I had to use it with this lovely image from Shelly's Images.  After I coloured the image with my copic marker I added some Matte Accents to give it more of the shiny look that candy canes have.  I have edged the papers and the die-cut image with Peelcraft stickers.  I had them out for another card and decided to use them on this one too!  The sentiment is an acrylic stamp (brand unknown).  I have added some satin ribbon from American Crafts and also some wooden buttons.  The buttons were a pinky colour so I coloured them with a copic marker to ensure that they matched the card.
