Pinkfresh Studio Happy Holidays Circle Frame Christmas card





Hello crafty friends, I hope you are well and happy on this wet and dismal day in Manchester! I know we are renowned for our rainfall, but this is getting very boring and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a dry day on St Swithins Day on Sunday lol! I'll stop complaining now because at least I'm getting a little more time to play in the craft room. We are back with a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More and this time we are looking for Christmas cards.
 


I came up with this card.



I used my NBUS Pinkfresh Studio Holiday Circle Frame stamps, dies and stencils for all the elements and placed them on a scalloped rectangle from My Favorite Things which I inked with red ink. 



I decided to do the stamping with Distress Ink and I like the effect it gave on the flowers and leaves but it doesn't give the crispest look on the sentiment.

You'll find lots of inspiration over on the ATSM blog and you can enter your card over there if you decide to join us this time.

I'd like to play at 





Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs

Indeed it is getting boring Carol, we're not forecast any rain today but there again neither was yesterday and it poured all evening, thank goodness for footie as no sitting outside save a couple of day.

Your card is a delight, so stylish in the traditional seasonal colours. Many thanks for joining in at Stamping Sensations (don't forget to link up).

I agree about the weather Carol, I wish Summer would come! Your card is stunning, I love the red border, with the beautiful holly stamp and poinsettias. x
