Red And White Christmas

Hello again,

***This is my second post of the day, please click here to see my card for 
 the November Challenge at St Luke's CCC.***


First of all I'm hijacking this drafted post to say how thrilled I am that my Star congrats card is sharing the Colour Queen spot this week alongside Jen's fantastic card, such fabulous news to wake up to :o)

Now back to this card ......as I said in my previous post, I carried on using my Waltzing Mouse Nordic Winter stamps to make a card for One Layer Weds which is being hosted by Susan Raihala this week and the requirements are a Red & White or Red & Cream card.... but not necessarily for Christmas unless your in full gear now on the run up to that crazy time of the year!!


This is the style of card that Susan herself, so readily creates and has me sighing with content but I had to literally put my hands in my pockets and walk away so as not to add anything else to it!!!
I'm so happy how this turned out :)

Oh, I discovered this set has a correct way up to stamp it because the patterns are knitted motifs and the little stitches have a correct orientation so they look like stocking stitch!! Lucky I planned my design on scrap paper first, I'm probably the last to notice this detail!!

I'm just going to pop this in at Simon Says Stamp 'Anything Goes Challenge' because they are trying for 10000 entries again and who am I  to disappoint them :)
Then I'm off because that's enough chat from me today, back Friday on the blog hop at Young Crafters Unite :)
Thanks for looking X

Just want to add how thrilled I am that my Star congrats card is sharing the Colour Queen spot this week alongside Jen's fantastic card :o)
