Jingle Belles Card 23 ...

Hello sweet friends ...
I am just popping in with my card for this weeks' Jingle Belles Rock challenge  and the theme this week is 
.... Let it Sew, Let it Sew, Let it Sew ....
Which of course is to add some sort of stitching to our card ... you all know I stitch on just about everything ... so why is it that I suddenly had a mental block when required to do it??**?? I guess I just over think everything ... so in the end I decided to keep it quite simple ... but with a little bit of ... humour?


..  it kinda speaks for itself really ... red ribbon and stitching ... and I cut some little holly leaves (ok ... I tried to cut something resembling holly leaves) ... from felt and added a wee bit of stitching too ...


... See the little 3D chipboard piece? ... my little bit of humour ... 

Hope you all have a lovely Sunday ... Thanks for stopping by ...

Great card with the lush skirt at the bottom- the card can carry it off but i don't think I could! The chipboard piece is just perfect. Your Christmas card stash is getting enviably bigger! Oh to be as organised as you! xx

Keeping it quite simple? Cutting felt leafs by hand? My oh my; I think you did quite a job :)
Gorgeous Ros; your stitching is always perfect and that sentiment made me laugh. Love your humor but you already knew that :)
