Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #130

Happy Thanksgiving to all us Canadians J, I hope everyone is enjoying a nice long weekend and some good eats with family and friends

My son is off gallivanting around Germany and my husband is still off hunting the illusive moose so I am hanging out solo today. I did get some wonderful family time yesterday though. Today is looking like a perfect day for card making.
 
We have a new Merry Monday Card Challenge for you today, Leanne is our hostess and her theme is Silent night.


I am pretty sure I have a sentiment stamp with Silent Night on it but I could not find it.. believe me I tried. So I went with a monochromatic look, I heat embossed the image and layered it. I added some back ground texture to look like snow and added a sentiment. I finished with some twine and a button.
 

Supplies: White and black cardstock, Design Paper-BBP, Inspired by Stamping - December 25th Labels, Papertrey Ink - Signature Christmas, Spellbinder die cuts, embossing folder,  twine, button.
 
Don’t forget to stop by the Merry Monday blog to see the Design Team’s creations, leave some comments along the way.

Thank you for stopping by,
Nina

  2. Your monochromatic, non-traditional Christmas card is so lovely! Who would've thought that using such a color would have so much pizzazz to it?! Love the different gestures used, too.

  6. You covered this challenge off beautifully with a monochromatic look. Does it play on your mind when you know you've got something but can't find it? It sure does to me!
