Holy Night

Welcome, Everyone!  This is my mid-month inspiration post for Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra.  There is still plenty of time to play along with us--you have until March 31st to create any Christmas project and link it up for a chance to win 7 images from Bugaboo Stamps.  Here is my card:

 The green dotted paper and the green ribbon were in my bits and pieces stash.  And the number strip was already cut to that width, I just needed to trim the length.  I hope you get a chance to get inky and play along with us; it's a great way to get a jump start on your Christmas card stash:
