Black and White Christmas

 Happy Wednesday!!  It's time for another challenge from The House That Stamps.  This week is fun one and open to so many options: Black and White + One other color

And here is the card I created:
This was another super quick card.  It seems I've been trying to make a lot of those lately.  I should learn to manage my time better!  Anyway, I chose Black, White and Red for my color combo.  I always think it is so elegant and perfect for so many occasions.  I decided to make a Christmas card, since that time is coming super quickly!  I die cut the white panel with a stitched rectangle die and then stamped the flower background stamp in black.  I die cut the "Merry Christmas" sentiment out of red glitter paper.  I also die cut it out of red card stock 2 times and adhered all three together.  I had a little oops with my stamping so I had a bit of double stamping going on.  I covered most of it up with the sentiment and then added some white flowers (that I thought resembled poinsettias) to help hide some more of it.  I finished everything off with some red pearls and adhered it all to a red card base.  And that is that!
Thanks for stopping by!  Make sure you head on over to The House blog to see what the rest of the Design Team has done with this challenge.  And if you "need" any of the stamps I used, check out my 10% off your entire order coupon code over in my lift sidebar.

I just made a black, white, and red Christmas card a few days before this challenge started! Bad timing! LOL I love all the red highlights you added to that pretty background and the big bold red sentiment brings it all together beautifully!
