Feeling Festive!

 A very good afternoon......I'm feeling festive today and its only 124 days until Christmas....SQUEAL....
I LOVE Christmas!!
I have been having a little play today and thought I would join in with this weeks

MOJO MONDAY

another fabulous sketch this week.

 

I have used my Marianne Design Creatables Poinsettia Die and RED FELT from SEW SWEET to create the flower. I added sead beads to the centre for effect.
Of course I had to use RED GINGHAM RIBBON again from SEW SWEET. Emma has lots of new stock that has been added to the webshop.
The border punch is Eyelet border by Stampin Up as is the embossing folder. The branch punch is by Martha Stewart.


I am also entering this card into this weeks challenge over on CAS-ual Friday which is embossing

Thanks for taking the time to visit today and don't forget only 3 sleeps until the new release sneak peaks over on SUGAR NELLIE

Catch up soon

Stunning card Ali. That poinsettia is really striking and the gingham ribbon is the perfect finishing touch. I love white cards with one other colour, especially red.

Love the seed beads for the centre - very effective & the gingham ribbon is an absolute joy. Oh dear that dreaded C-word looms again. What happened to 2011???
