Sleigh Ride

Hi!  I've got a fun Christmas card to share today.  Usually, I would have most of my Christmas cards made by now, but not this year, so I'm checking out challenges for inspiration and creating.


This was fun to make!  I stamped the plaid BG using DRS Designs Woven Plaid in my MISTI with Memento Rhubarb Stalk.  My image and sentiment are from Sweet n Sassy Stamps Old-Fashioned Christmas.  I used VersaFine Onyx Black and clear embossing powder.  A bit of ribbon added the finishing touch.

Challenges...
Sparkles Christmas #95 - embossing (image and sentiment are heat embossed and I'm applying for the DT)
Simon Says Monday - make your own background (I stamped the plaid)
Incy Wincy Nov 5-17 - Christmas
613 Ave Create #215 - anything goes w/ opt twist Christmas
Double Trouble #14 - Christmas + tic tac toe (see below--stamping/red/plaid)
Try Stampin' on Tuesday #6 - tic tac toe (stamping/red/plaid)

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!!

Really love the silhouette against that nice soft flannel plaid and the addition of the black bow...striking card. Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and Try Stamping on Tuesdays TicTacToe Board. Hope you come back to visit us again now and/or for future fun challenges at Double Trouble.

Great holiday card, Debbie! I've never heat embossed on top of a pattern before, so you have inspired me! It was easy to pick out your use of the stamping/red/plaid row from the Try Stampin' on Tuesday challenge. I'm glad we could be an inspiration for you as you get all your Christmas cards ready for the holidays! Thanks for joining us and come back soon to TSOT!!! -Donna
