Red & White Friday Fun

Hello everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed your week and are looking forward to the weekend...how many of you are going to be Christmas shopping?  I don't {want} to go out but I may have to...*sigh*  I have had a busy day today and would like to just stay home and hibernate but we'll see what the rest of the family wants to do.  Maybe they'll all go away and leave me alone in the house... ah, a girl can dream, can't she?

Anyhoo, today's card is a combination of the Play Date Cafe's fabulous color combination and clean&simple stamping's sketch:

Don't you LOVE red and white together?  So bright and uplifting for any time of the year...


Stamps: Tiny Tags  Ink: Cherry Cobbler  Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler  Accessories: Paper piercer, Northern Flurries embossing folder, Seeing Spots embossing folder, oval punches, adhesive pearls and rhinestones, baker's twine, button, Cherry Cobbler seam binding, ribbon slider (Hodgepodge Hardware), sponge dauber

Thanks for peeking tonight - dinner's almost ready and then I think I'll spend some time on the couch watching a movie... we have "The Expendables" that I haven't seen yet so maybe I'll pop it in.  Enjoy your evening - see you Sunday!
