Jingle Belles card 13

Good morning my lovely blog friends ... I hope you are well ... 
The sun is shining here again though the last few days have been cold ... but here is a little sign of Spring in my garden ...



The clocks 'sprang' forward this week end too ... so that means the nights get lighter and the days appear longer ... Wonderful! ... More time to create

So this week at Jingle Belles the theme is 'The Holly and the Ivy'... just include some sort of holiday foliage on your card ... so without further ado ... here's my card ...


A scrap piece Websters Pages paper ... a few stickers, lace, and of course holly leaves to which I added a flower and some berries and a white satin bow ...


... and the sweet little 3D bauble is from Stella ..

I'm almost recovered from my painful foot ... and I am so grateful and touched by your warm wishes ... whatever did I do without you all? 
Have a wonderful day

Till soon

~ Ros ~

EDIT ... Don't forget ... there is still time to enter for my GiveAway ... just leave a comment HERE

Such a beautiful and festive holiday card, I think I am stump on this one, don't seem to find any "connection" to Ivy or holiday plant, might give it a miss for the first time.
Beautiful garden flowers there!

Ros, this card is amazing... so elegant. LOVE the green and white and little splashes of red and gold. So pretty!

This card is fantastic Ros! I love the color combination and the dimension is just wonderful - love that big flower and the ornament .... Sigh. I must say I am so jealous that your flowers and forsythia are in bloom! It was 17 degrees this morning when I left for work. Ugh. Glad you're feeling better!
