I chose to use the gorgeous stamp, Christmas Joy. This is such a lovely and graceful image, I really loved working with it! I opened it in PSP and changed the black to a very deep red and then mounted it with red and white throughout. Instead of me trying to explain, let's take a look:
I used some nestie dies and a couple of MS punches, some uber gorgeous red ribbon and a packaged leaf sticker/die cut, a cuttlebug corner die, berries. and finally white grosgrain ribbon. I apologize for my yukky bow, I am the most bow challenged card maker I know! *sigh* So now that you have seen my take on the red and white challenge, why not grab an image and play along! You can share your card here. You can also get this image over at Tracy's shop, along with many more beautiful images. You do realize that SCH has freebies, if you haven't taken a look and grabbed them, you need to do that. Now then, be sure to take a look at all the rest of the red and white beauties out there for you to drool and gasp over.
Sugar Creek Nugget: Romans 8:37-39
37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Donna,
What a lovely card! You image is red is stunning and I love all you added extras, such as the berries and layers.
Beautiful Card! Thanks for playing along with LRW!
This is absolutely beautiful! I love all of the layers and details. That stamp is so pretty and it coordinates perfectly with the red lace and berries. On a side note...I'm a big red wine lover...If you're getting Red Wine out of a "box", you're doing it wrong! You'll have to come here and craft and drink wine with me. You'll see! Anyway, gorgeous card!
You never cease to amaze me Donna....I just cannot absorb all that you put into a card with one look. This is just a masterpiece fit for a KING!!! Lovely piece of art. I am so glad to have you on my team!!!!!
This is just spectacular Donna. It reminds me of vintage redwork. The berries look so pretty. What a beautiful piece of art. Great job with the sketch. Thank you so much for playing along with the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.

Beautiful! I love everything about this....where to begin. Fabulous!!!
What a beautiful example of how impactful a simple sentiment image can be. No need for fancy markers here. This is lovely Donna. Your embellishments and die cuts enhance the image as the focal point and add such beauty. You have a knack at gathering the most perfect of embellishments.

Donna, Donna, Donna! This is just spectacular! You have showcased your sentiment in such a gorgeous, elegant design! I love the holly and all the other luscious embellishments you have used - I am just so in love with your card! I also think your bow looks great - I am bow "challenged", my two words are "bow easy"!
