Christmas Card Club - Challenge #9

Back again today with my card for the Christmas Card Club which, if you remember, I made two weeks ago by mistake!!! Yet another senior moment  (or brain f**t as I saw it called recently!!! lol).

This challenge has been set by the lovely Karen P and she's asked us to make a card in black and white with one added colour.

I've used black, white and red for my card.  I've started off with an A5 top fold card blank and cut a mat slightly smaller.  I then stamped the image which is from Sheena A Little Bit Festive series Home from Home.  I added loads of Glamour Dust to denote snow and gently coloured the windows in a light red to signify a glowing fire or light.  I've matted this onto red card and used my ribbon threader punch to add some red ribbon at the bottom.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set and I've added some Liquid Pearls to finish off.


Thanks for stopping by - check out the other girls' creations.......the links are on my side bar.

Happy crafting.
