The challenge at Capture the Moment is multi-stamp background building. I've been mulling this over all week, and this is what I've come up with. I used a leaf stamp from Turning a New Leaf and a tiny flower from Tag-Its #3.
I was planning to use red and white on kraft, but at the last minute I decided to see what it would look like with a more rustic red, so I used red brick. This is almost a brownish red, and I think this card would be appropriate for Thanksgiving, but because I'm full on into my Christmas cards, I went with Christmas!

When I finished, I still wanted to see what it would look like with a brighter red, so I made another using Brilliance rocket red for the flowers. Two more Christmas cards checked off this list! :)

Your card looks great both ways and I'm sure it would be super cute as a thanksgiving card too. Love the twine.

Both reds are great Ann. I love the design!

Hi Ann, Oh I really love this. I love that you placed the background within the scored lines on the sides. I love what you chose to build your background. Both the deep and bright red work beautifully.
