It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Today's card is for this week's Merry Monday Christmas Challenge (#101) to use the colors of red, grey and white.

I combined the new with the old today. I cut the background paper from the Webster's Pages It's Christmas pad and then stamped the sentiment from the CAS-ual Fridays Christmas Carols set directly onto the paper using Ranger Archival Vermillion ink. The old part is the clock from the Heidi Swapp Clocks stamp set from back in my scrapbooking days. I wiped away the clock edge so I could stamp only the numbers in Memento Luxe Gray Flannel ink. I cut the clock hands using the PTI Hands of Time dies from the same charcoal gray card stock I used for the background panel matting and anchored them with a red button. Unfortunately my camera makes the card stock look black but in real life it's a beautiful dark gray for a simple and understated Christmas card. Sorry for the dark photograph but it's a gloomy day here.
