Stampendous Saturday...Seasons Greetings

Good morning! Its Saturday so you know what that...Stampendous Saturday! This month we're challenging you to create Clean and Simple Holiday Cards. There is a Stampendous Cling Jumbo Sparkle Joy stamp for one lucky  random player. You have till Thur Nov. 3rd 11:59 EST to add your creation to the linky tool. 

Clean and Simple cards are kinda hard for me. I just want to keep adding a bit more to them. For this card I used a soon to be released Jumbo set Zinnia. You might be scratching your head wondering where the flower part is in the card. The Zinnia set comes with the background stamp. I stamped that repeatedly to create this gorgeous background. Its pretty on its own, but I went back and added a few dots of white acrylic paint to make the design "pop". Add a gorgeous red ribbon and a tag and you have a simple holiday card. 


Looking for more inspiration? Be sure to hop along and see what the rest of the Stampendous DT has created!

I love how you created background with the border from the zinnia! Is that liquid pearls for the dots in between? BTW, for us slightly older followers, could you crank up the font sizing a notch? :)
