Be Merry

Hello, everyone!  It's time for a new challenge from the Creative Moments Challenge blog.  The theme is: Wrap It Up.  I am using an image from our fabulous sponsor: Mirtillamente.

 Here is my card:
I was feeling lazy and did not feel like coloring.  I thought it would be fun to print out the image on some ledger paper that I had gotten at a second hand store a month or so ago.  It has a pale green tint, so I paired it with some patterned papers that have some green patterns.  I actually took a bunch of scraps from that paper pack and made my own background.  All but one of the strips was already cut to width, I just had to trim off the ends.  I stamped the sentiment on the same ledger paper and die cut it with a circle.  The ribbon was on my desk--just the perfect length.  And I finished everything off with some large, gold sequins.

You have all month to play along.  So, get inky and link up your creation; I can't wait to see what you create!

Supplies:

It's a really fun image, looks great uncoloured on the ledger paper, fab background design using those scraps and the sequins add some lovely festive sparkle. Thanks for joining in at Fab'n' Funky

I am with you with the 'don't feel like colouring' mood, I get it all the time, but leaving the image uncoloured is really effective! Great design!

I did not know this stamp and had a good look before I saw the legs under all those presents. So funny!!
