Happy Christmas

Hi Everyone, here is my entry into the first challenge from 52 (Christmas) card Throwdown, http://52cct.blogspot.com.au of 2015.    I have used a white cardstock base with a topper of red cardstock, and I embossed the first white side with a Sizzex emb. folder "Snow and Trees" and the second side with a Cuttlebug emb. folder "Polka Dots"  These would have to be my favourite embossing folders for Christmmas cards, I use them a lot, the centre stripe is cut from a scrap of Christmas Designer Paper, I don't remember which company it is from, as I have had it for a very long time.   I stamped the ornament in Red Memento Ink with Spellbinders Heirloom Ornaments Clear Stamp set, and the top with silver cardstock that I bought at the newsagents.   The red string at the top of the ornament is drawn with a Stabilo Mini Pen.   Just hope you all like this one. I made another one to go into the Caring Hearts Drive so that as well as having a card for my self I will have one for them as well.
