There are two challenges I have been excited to play along with all week! One is Freshly Made Sketches using a fantastic sketch by my pal, Jen Mitchell and the other is a floral challenge over at Merry Monday by my other crafty pal, Bonnie Klass.
I made a clean and simple card using the Hardwood background stamp from SU! and a sentiment stamp from My Favorite Things. I think it is my favourite Christmas sentiment stamp set! I mixed this with some stitched ribbon in my stash and a button...all very simple to put together and now I have another Christmas card for my stash! Hope you are crafting today!
Wow, I love how you put these elements together! The hardwood background is gorgeous with the flower and ribbon treatment!
ReplyDeleteOH WOW! I LOVE this Lesley! The hardwood background is stunning with that amazing sentiment and gorgeous flower. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this Lesley. The Hardwood stamp inked in black over brown looks awesome. Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love that Hardwood stamped in black like that...and I agree, that Christmas sentiment set is one of the best! So happy you played with us this week. Now that you're all done your housework, you can fly over and come do mine!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Lesley. Love the woodgrain background and the pretty flower. Great minds think alike as I used the same sketch but used the Spellbinders Poinsettia.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.

That's a wonderful sentiment, Lesley! And the flower is the perfect accent for it! I'm so glad to see you over at MM again!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Lesley! Every time I see that Hardwood stamp I think I must be crazy for not owning it! What a fantastic background it makes for your Christmas card. And I've got to say I thought the flower was made of felt!
ReplyDeleteFab card, Lesley! That Hardwood stamp makes for such a striking background and your flower is gorgeous! So glad you could join us at both MM and FMS.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card! I love the country feel you created.
ReplyDeletePretty for sure! Love the wood grain background!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, Lesley! I love the background and that pretty flower.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this! The fonts on the sentiment are fabulous, and I love the woodgrain. And that little jolt of pink ribbon adds a fun and unexpected touch.
