Merry Monday #47

I am struggling a little (again) with how fast this month zoomed on by, it is just me or did January just disappear on us?

It is time for a new Merry Monday Challenge and this week Lesley created a Tic Tac Toe chart for us to choose elements from. I chose Red & Green, Clean and Simple and ribbon for my options.
 
I made this card really simple, I love this stamp and wanted to ink it up only using brown.  This DP coordinated perfectly, and I used a very thin ribbon as an accent. I did add a single layer of matting to both the background and sentiment.
 
 
 
Please visit Lesley's Always Playing with Paper to see what the design team has created.
 
Supplies: Natural white and brown card stock, Designer Paper-Echo Park, Inkadinkado-Winter Cabin, Fiskars-Seasons's Greetings.

Cheers,
Nina

  5. Hi Nina,

    I think this image is fantastic, its so traditional yet could go with almost any paper. I think it is perfect for a "simple" card as it becomes the focal point. I think at Christmas, with all the busyness we would all like to escape to a cabin in the woods like that.
