Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #128


  
Are you ready for a new Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge?  Well, Katie has a super fun one for us this week:  use both stripes and polka dots on your card!


 I chose a polka dot cover plate from Papertrey Ink and some retired striped DSP from Stampin Up (I hoard paper - I'll admit it!).  I added a poinsettia flower and gold label with the sentiment.

Simply cannot wait to see what you create!

Be sure to see the wonderful creations the Design Team has to share with you this week over at the challenge blog!!

    Kathy was a beautiful card. I love the flower and recently purchased a die set and now I am anxious to give it a try.
