Colour Challenge at Holly Jolly, Red, White and Blue

It is a red, white and blue Christmas theme this week at Holly Jolly Christmas Challenges.  I had this sentiment stamp by Lindy's Stamp Gang in my stash and decided to do a friendship quilt for my card.  The stamp reads "the best gifts for Christmas ??  Love...Peace...Friends!"

 I used some red, white and blue pattern Christmas card stock for the quilt and arranged them in a pattern, then I embossed the sentiment with navy blue embossing powder.  I layered the sentiment on a red die cut and added a laced crochet blue ribbon to complete the card. 

Come join us this week at Holly Jolly, just create your card and enter it here.

Thanks for looking.

    I like the effect of the squares on this card, and I think it's such a nice example of a beautiful card with no image. The sentiment and pattern of your papers give this card a great Christmas feel.
