Christmas in the Old Country

Hello! I hope you had a fantastic weekend! We went to our first Christmas Market - can`t believe that it`s Christmas time already! Although I am creating Christmas cards all the time I am not "in the mood" yet. I hope that`ll change!
Cath is hosting another great challenge on Moxie Fab World. This one is challenging for me, I hope my card qualifies for "Christmas in the Old Country"! The colours and the pattern of my card remind me of it:


Be sure to check out the amazing entries - jump in! For all my Hero Arts friends - if you are lucky enough to own the Cleardesign Dolls set (russian babushka dolls) that would be PERFECT for this challenge!

Ok, I hope I didn`t make many spelling mistakes in my post - my girl decided to wake up at 5:45 am today... she already regrets it being tired and all ;)

Have a happy Monday and thank you for visiting my little place!

Hugs,
Vanessa

Supplies:
Cardstock + Patterned Paper: Papertrey Ink, Stamps: (Antique Flower Background, Merry Christmas) Hero Arts, Gems: (coloured with Copics) Prima Marketing, Dies: (Labels 8) Spellbinder

Your card is fabulous, simple yet elegant. With the new release coming up and DH on a business trip, I haven't had time to check out Moxie Fab's new challenge :-(.
