Good morning friends~ I'm going vintage today and playing along with this week's Merry Monday Christmas Challenge. Their theme this week is:
Red, White and Grey.
I started by stamping grey stripes down the left side of the card base and heat embossed the sentiment in gold. The music sheet is printed off my home printer and then I used WPlus 9's Merry & Bright for the candle centerpiece. I did veer a little from the colors by adding green to the leaves. The candle is covered in Wink of Stella.
I'll also be adding this card to the following challenges:
Double D's Challenges ~ Traditional Christmas Colors
The Crop Stop ~ Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
Thanks so much for stopping by! Blessings~ Birgit

Beautiful Birgit. Such a lovely vintage card. Thanks for joining us this week at Merry Monday.
Ohhhh, the sheet music makes a gorgeous background! Love how you put this together with the stripes and the sentiment along the side. So pretty! Thanks for sharing with us at Double D!
That's so funny Birgit; I was just using the same sheet music paper for a card with the Die Cut Club but then decided against it. It definitely works with your card. Love the stamping down the side of the card and the gold bow. This looks beautiful!
Fantastic card, Birgit, love that background music piece! And your sweet little candle with flower is so pretty! Thank you for sharing this with us at Merry Monday, it is always a joy to see your creations among the gallery! Happy Thanksgiving!
Such a pretty card! I love all the details you put into this one! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Merry Monday.
