Christmas Colours but NOT a Christmas Card - yay!!!

Thomas is going to a birthday party next week so I had a spare half hour this morning and thought I'd make the card. I needed to be quick (2 children need entertaining!) so there was no time for colouring or faffing! I put this together in about 10 minutes not including the time taken to print the paper and sentiments. I rarely use red on cards (except for Christmas & Valentines) but I really like this, hope you do too x


I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Supplies:
Image - Lili of the Valley die cut square (I've cut it down) from my lovely friend Tams, cheers Tams x
Paper - Crimson gingham from Pink Petticoat
Cardstock - Bazzill Basics
Sentiment ribbon - Pink Petticoat
Sentiment - Girly Curly Sentiments from Pink Petticoat
Ribbon - stash
