Happy Christmas from Chocolate Baroque

Good morning folks,  today's card is a quick and easy Christmas card made with the gorgeous new clear stamps from Chocolate Baroque, Fancy Flourishes

We always have so many cards to make for Christmas, so its nice to be able to get stamping and have a bit of a 'production line going with some simple but effective designs. The new Fancy Flourishes are fab for creating borders, backgrounds and frames so I thought they would be just the job for a a pretty Christmas design. I stamped the flourishes in Ladybug Memento Ink to create the frame, its so easy to line the clear stamps up. I added the sentiment from Bold Christmas Words and matted on some red card. To finish off I added a little red bow

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Addicted to Stamps: Christmas is coming
Allsorts: ribbon and bows
CRAFT: Christmas
Delightful Challenges: Frame it
Thanks for popping by today

  4. I always like the crispness of red & white/cream & this demonstrated it beautifully. I especially like the way you have echoed the little stamped ribbon in the sentiment with your lovely actual ribbon bow. A lovely addition of textural embellishment.
