I hope you are all having a good weekend. I am usually at work when this post goes live but I have today off and I plan to prepare for a craft fair at the end of the month. And tomorrow - I am going to see my granddaughter Evie. Cant wait for cuddles, I am so excited.
Today sees the start of a new challenge over at Dream Valley. We are being sponsored by Crafty Ribbons and the winner of this challenge will win a bag of goodies. The theme for this challenge is Clean and Simple.
I have used an image from LOTV "Swirly fir tree".
I have taken this picture with the red background as it was lost against white though I think it is a bit too red. I guess it makes it more Christmassy though.
I have used a paper pad form LOTV and I am going to be really sorry when this runs out.
I have combined a plain red ribbon (from my stash) and a tartan ribbon (from Asda) to make this bow.
Thank you all for stopping by. I will have more time to visit your wonderful blogs this week as I am not at work until Thursday. Yippee.
I will take some photos on Monday of Evie
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges
Designed to color - Christmas/winter

Not too much red at all! It is Christmas themed after all. I love how you sort of shaded the edges of the background...looks fab.
ReplyDeleteI really like the tartan on this card...it is traditionally Christmas and it looks fabulous!
The triangle tree was a brilliant idea...great design!
This is so pretty and it totally feels like Christmas.
