Christmas Card Club Challenge 1 for 2015 is Red, Green & White

Hi Folks.  Here we are again in a nice New Year and the Christmas Card Club Challenge 1 where we start all over again.  A great way to prepare for Christmas without the stress.  This challenge was chosen by the lovely Carol and was to be Red, Green & White.   My card is very clean & simple Carol,  but I did manage to stay with the colours you asked for.   Lots of matting and layering with this one and one of my oldest stamps.   Hope you like what I've done.   Not into the swing of things yet,  but I will get there.    Beautiful day here and it certainly is a reminder that Spring is on its way.   Hope you all have a Good Weekend.   Hugs Rita xxx
