Coffee & Cream Christmas

My mojo has up and left for a holiday! I have discovered that there are disadvantages to working for your husband, one of them being that a cold is not a good enough excuse not to go to work :( so by the time I’ve got home in the past few days all I’ve wanted to do is curl up on the sofa and feel sorry for myself! However, I hate not posting at least once a week, so I’ve got a card to show today that I made for J & C Creations a little while ago on the theme of ‘Contemporary Christmas’. I had already made a pink & blue card for their monthly challenge and so decided on a brown & cream colour scheme for this stepper card.
Brown Contemporary Xmas 
Stamp from Penny Black’s clear stamp set ‘Christmas Fashion’ coloured with Promarkers
Snowflakes cut using Marianne Designs Christmas Creatables ‘Swedish Ice Star’
Sentiment cut using Spellbinders ‘Fleur de Lis Rectangles’ die
Stickles ‘Frosted Lace’
Brown card, brads paper & ribbon from stash
