Playin' #111 & LIM'in #46

I am in a full out Christmas card & tag making mood, which is good because I really haven't started until today (whoopsie!).  For inspiration to get started, I went to the challenge blogs!  I loved both the Play Date Cafe & Less Is More challenges this week so I decided to combine them into one card!  The PDCC this week was to use black & white with a splash of teal/aqua and the LIM challenge this week was to incorporate music into your card.  I used a music note stamp that I've had but haven't really used much and stamped a piece of plain white cardstock, trimmed the edges and then just layered it with black & aqua cardstock.   After that I just stamped the "Merry Christmas" sentiment and added a folded ribbon which I assembled with some hot glue and then added an aqua stone brad.

    I really love this card. And the owl! (He's hanging on my tree, and needs to get into a card! I just took him out yesterday) I love the ribbon, and music stamping, and how you placed the sentiment.
