Hello and Happy Wednesday!
I hope you're having a good week so far! If you're in Canada, your kids might have just started back at school after a year of disruptions and virtual learning. My boys are in brand new schools this year and their first day was yesterday. I think it might have been harder on me than them. A whole series of "what if's" went through my head all day. School can be so hard for some. I do hope they have a great year!
We have a brand new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! I have the honour of being this week's hostess! I went with a pretty basic sketch! I really am not all that creative! I do hope you'll play along with us this week!
So I originally wanted a fall card. I love fall and wanted to use some of my new leaf dies but I just couldn't make it work. Let's just say I'm in a bit of a slump! I opted for Christmas since I need to get my act together! It is soon going to be Christmas! Can you believe it?!
My poinsettia dies are going to be some of the most used dies I have! I just love them! The Peaceful Prints DSP has the most gorgeous red plaid paper that I couldn't resist using! It's just gorgeous! Red might just be one of my favourite colours!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Real Red, Basic Black, Silver Foil
DSP: Peaceful Prints
Stamps: Poinsettia Petals
Ink: Stazon Black
Other: Poinsettia Dies, Banner Dies, Dimensionals
Thanks again for stopping by today! I hope you'll head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the card the Design Team have created! I also hope you'll join in our challenge this week!
Have an amazing day!

ReplyDeleteThis is a stunner! I love the plaid background and the beautiful poinsettia. I have a million poinsettia dies, but maybe I have room for one more? You've inspired me!
ReplyDeleteA Christmas card never gets wasted Jen! This one is a beauty with it's dramatic red and black colour scheme with the flashes of white. Love the plaid background. I hope your boys have a great year in their new schools with the minimum of disruption. Vicky x
