Merry Monday #82

Happy Monday it is time for a new  Merry Monday Christmas Card ChallengeLesley has posted this fabulous looking image for inspiration for this weeks challenge.



The colours for this challenge are Red, Aqua  and white, and we must use circles. I used a white card base then added a panel of aqua designer paper backed with some red card
stock.

I stamped this pretty poinsettia with white embossing powder infused with gold glitter then fussy cut it out. I used a circle inch to create a hole in the designer paper then popped a smaller designer paper circle up with foam take and added the poinsettia.

I used the same embossing powder for the sentiment then finished with some white ribbon and pearl.




Supplies: Natural and red card stock, Designer Paper - American Crafts, Verve - Joyous Noel , ribbon, pearl, circle punch. 

Stop by Lesley's blog  and see the Design Team creations and join in the fun and play along with the challenge.

Cheers,
Nina
