Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #213 - Inspiration Photo

 Welcome to a brand new Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge!  This week's challenge is hosted by our lovely Debbie who invites us to create a Christmas card using this photo for inspiration:
 
 For my card, I was inspired by the red background with pops of white.  I started with a favorite Stampin Up embossing folder.  The poinsettia die is from My Favorite Things - another fav! - and then I added the Seasons Greetings word die - both cut from white cardstock.

How will YOU be inspired?  Can't wait to see your entry in the gallery!

 

Need some ideas?  Then look no further...check out what the Design Team has to share with you:
