My parents have just got back from a holiday in Barcelona, bringing me the yummiest chocolates which I'm currently munching on. You know when you just can't resist another... and another?!!
When I first looked at the new Stampin Up catalogue the two products I immediately fell in love with were the big Medallion background stamp and the new thick stripey ribbon so I put them together with one of my other favourite supplies, Kraft card, to make this:
I think the medallion looks great embossed with white on the kraft, and how heavenly is that ribbon?!!! But do you think it works as a Christmas card? I'd love to know what you think!
Now where are those chocolates? ;)
Thanks for visiting!

Oh I like this as a Christmas card - kinda different but that medallion embossed reminds me of a beautiful snowflake! The ribbon reminds me of all the choccies I scoff over the holidays so yup, this is a Christmassy card in my book!
Soup sounds scrummy! Chris has been compared to Nigel Slater - though unfortunately not for his cooking ability, just his obsessive nature!
Have a fabby choccy Friday!
Love,

Morning Lovely.
What a smashing card. Enjoy those chocs.
I am off to Jo's open afternoon today for a well earned bit of home made cake (Sue her Mum in law has done the cooking and she is a friend of mine and her cake is DIVINE).
Have a great weekend Kate.

I'm new to this blogging business Kate, so hope I'm leaving my comment in the right way! I just wanted to say how much I LOVE the white medallion on kraft card for a Christmas card - just so simple and elegant. For me this is always a winning combination.
I am really enjoying your blog and admire your talent.
Best wishes

Absolutely totally stunning - love it!
I love non-traditional xmas cards so this gets my vote for certain. Love the monochrome look and really shows off that ribbon. Scrummy.
