Less than perfect

Good afternoon! Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. This weekend and the beginning of next week are important holidays in the south of the Netherlands, called "Carnaval".Basically grown people are dressing up and getting enormously drunk. It's not for me, so I will be "fleeing" to see my parents in the North. Looking forward to see them, because of the distance we don't see each other all that much and it has been about two months so a good opportunity to go and see them.

I've got some great news: I won my first prize for one of my cards! It's a new challenge blog called Sparkles Forum Christmas Challenge and I won third prize! I was incredibly surprised of course.

Anyway, I was trying to make another card to submit to the next challenge, this time the theme was red and green. Easy, right? However, I found it so difficult to find my mojo and am not really happy with my card but wanted to share it nonetheless. To me, it doesn't "gel", but of course I am my own worst critic. So happy to hear from you!

This is my card, front and back:

Materials used:
* Studio light image sheet
* Eline Vintage Stamp Set (so versatile and lovely fonts!)
* Marianne Design Scandinavion Christmas backing paper
* Green paper & ribbon from stash
* Flora Doodles Primary Colours flowers

I would like to submit this card to the following challenges:
* Sparkles Forum Christmas Challenge (Red & Green)
* Winter Wonderland (Snowflakes)
* Papertake Weekly (Anything Goes)
* Little Miss Muffet Challenge (Designer Papers)

That's it from me. Thank you all for all the lovely comments I have been receiving of late, it's really appreciated. Welcome to another two followers, Angel and Elizabeth!

Have a great weekend, Ciska
