A Modern Christmas COTW #4

Alrighty, needed to get my mojo going for my personal challenge of a Christmas card a week, this being week four. Read Sharon's Stamp Simply challenge and decided to do base my card on that. When I think of modern I think straight lines, no fluff. I used one of the bowls from Flourishes Mixed Greetings, and the tiny ornament from All That Glitters, cut that image out and attached to rectangle of Memory Box Winterberry DP. Sentiment is from Simply Wordsworth. Same DP used to cover card base, and the red is Basic Grey Wassail. Couldn't help myself...added a little red rhinestone to the bowl. : ) Went together very quickly.

Stamps: Flourishes Mixed Greetings and All That Glitters, Simply Wordsworth.
Paper: The Paper Studio, Basic Grey Wassail, Memory Box Winterberry.
Ink: Colorbox Queues, Stazon.
Accessories: That little rhinestone.

This is a fantastic Christmas card. Good for you for starting early. I always say I'm going to do that, but somehow it just never happens! Way to go!

This card is beautiful! I have this set and I really like it. I challenged myself to a Christmas card each month, so you're at least 4 times more on top of this challenge than me. Good for you! Your HM card is adorable! I'm about to post mine. This was a fun challenge.
