Happy Monday! I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you for being patient with me. This past week has been real busy and I wasn't able to update like I wanted to so today I am posting early. Also, thank you to all of my new followers and don't forget that once I reach 200 followers I will be giving away a new Stampin' Up! Simply Score Tool to one of you.  If you aren't sure what I am talking about, please see my blog post found here--->click on this link here.

I saw the clean & simple challenge posted on Splitcoast stampers and I knew right away what card I was going to make.  I just ordered this stamp set because I knew it would make lovely Christmas cards.  If you just beginning to stamp this card is perfect for you since you wouldn't need to purchase a lot of items plus this card is so easy to make.  It only took me about 5 minutes to make and if you leave off the pearls it would be perfect for mailing. 

I used the Bells & Boughs stamp set to create my card.  I stamped the larger poinsettia stamp in two of my corners using old olive ink and then I stamped it again just at the edge of my corners using cherry cobbler ink.  My sentiment was stamped using cherry cobbler ink and then I simply added three tiny pearls.  I also decided to use my cherry cobbler marker and put a few dots in the centers of the old olive poinsettis and that was it- super cute, quick, and easy.   

I hope you liked my card today.  I have quite a few projects ready to share with you all the next few weeks so be sure to check be when you can.  Make it a great day!
