Fairy Fun Friday- Christmas without Red & Green

*for my Christmas Candy, see the sticky at the top of my blog*


It's almost Christmas! 
OMG! Is everyone ready!??
I think I almost am! 
I am a bit sad this year cuz I work Christmas Day, however I was able to switch Christmas Eve, so I can have that day off for Christmas supper and the opening of presents! 
Thank goodness for great co-workers! 
-----------------
The theme this time at Fairy Fun Fridays is

HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS- use NON-TRAD Colors

I have chosen to use the  image Carolers Singing  from Prairie Fairy Designs. And I went for a kinda vintagy, shabby feel. My card is pretty straight forward with all my usual extras, from swirl stickers, to twigy hearts and of course ribbons and cheesecloth! I also have a wee tag tucked away in there behind the picture and doily. (see below for pics). The sentiment & wee bells on the tag are from a The Deck the Halls Tobie clear stamp set from Some Odd Girl. Oh yes I also added some drops of liquid applique to resemble snowflakes.

Finally at the bottom I spritzed my card with some shimmer mist.....does it look like snow blowing!?! 





Thanks for stopping by today. I hope to see you at the  FFF challenge this fortnight! 

Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas!!! 

Challenges for my card
Bearly Mine- non-trad colors (no red or green)
