Addicted to Stamps Challenge # 170

Welcome to another Wednesday and a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps. We have the most fabulous photo to inspire you this week and it couldn't have come at a better time:


My Xmas card stash is still very small, so this is a great chance to add to it. And the photo is so beautiful, the Gallery will be full of Xmas cheer this week!

Our Sponsor for this challenge is Happy Little Stampers and they are giving the winner of this challenge a $15 gift voucher. Their stamps are so gorgeous, its one amazing prize!!


From the photo I couldn't go past using red and white on my card. And luckily I had a new die-set a friend gave me to try out and one of them was perfect:
 

The dies sent to me are from Little B 'Holiday-Navidad-Noel'. I had no idea they made dies, had only come across their foil washi, so this was a fantastic surprise!!

One of the dies is a sprig, which I die-cut a few times from white CS. I arranged them in a wreath pattern on a panel of white CS and glued as I went. After stamping the sentiment (from CAS-ual Fridays 'Must Love Snowflakes') I adhered the panel to the card front. As I needed some red, I added some red bling to the wreath. My husband saw this card and told me how much he liked it. He doesn't usually say too much about my creations, so that made me extra happy!!

You have one week to link your projects to the Addicted to Stamps Challenge and the rest of the Design Team have created some beautiful cards for you on the blog, to get you in the mood!! I can't wait to view the Gallery and see what you've made!!

Take care
Shona
