Merry Monday #135

Happy Monday friends!
Time for another Merry Monday Challenge.
This week Sue challenges us to create a card featuring Christmas bells.

 
I really wanted to use some bells that are pictured in the graphic but realized I don't have any stamps/dies that are like these bells.  So I went a different route and added some little jingle bells by Stampin' Up to my twine along with the sentiment from Papertrey Ink.  I love that when you "jingle" this card it makes a slight bell sound.  

Christmas will be here before you know it.  Make sure you check out the other DT members cards over at the Merry Monday challenge blog.

 Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

Stamps:  Season's Greetings (Papertrey Ink)
Ink:  Hawaiian Shores (Papertrey Ink)
Paper:  Hawaiian Shores, DSP from the Sparkle & Shine pack (PTI), Silver Glimmer (SU)
Accessories:  White twine, Jingle bells (SU), Stitched square dies (Lil' Inker)

    Kristie, this is so pretty! The Hawaiian Shore is a great non-traditional color pick.
