Tilda under the mistletoe...

....Good Morning Everyone!
How are we all today? I hope you're all well. I'm up MEGA early again on my day off, they are coming to do some work on my builidng & someone is calling round & wants to be in my flat.....9am they will be here!!!!

Anyway it's a good job I'm up early as I can share my newest card with you all!!! I went to the Crafts for Christmas show at the Arena yesterday...(it's on today & tomorrow if you'd like to go)...there was lots of goodies there & tooo many Martha Stewart punches, I topped up on things I needed I got a new pair of x-cut non-stick scissors, star dust stickles, scalloped square card blanks & a set of 3 sizzix xmas dies. So not too much.....Im saving my mad dash for the NEC in November lol!

Onto my card I have used my new scalloped card blank green & red card from paper mill, & mistletoe paper by Magnolia, Tilda under mistletoe as been stamped in memento & colored with pro markers & star dust stickles, misletoe diecut cut onto green card & stickles added to berries. I struggled with a greeting & in the end I went for a teeny tiny "Happy Christmas" inside I hav the same papers but on the top of the card blank I have another sprig of mistletoe.

This card fits into the following challenges:
Allsorts - Song Title I went for Mistletoe & wine as Im sure Tilda has had a few glasses to get enough courage to get under the misletoe!
Papertake Weekly - 3 of a kind, I have 3 mistletoe emblishments
Totally Tilda - Red & Green

Right I MUST go put my make-up on as I don't want to scare this poor person who is coming round lol!

I'm going to leave you with the song I have used for inspirations for the Allsorts Challenge:
Mistletoe & Wine by Sir Cliff Richard!
